Ooph, Gud. Those are always problematic. Because spell check won't catch those.
ImememeN, I am DONE.
The last 35 pages took longer than I expected, but I was being very careful to make sure all the loose ends and references were tied together, nothing left hanging. Best part, though, is when you read through and you realize those threads all pulled themselves together, seemingly without much effort on your part.
The Girls in the Basement, hard at work.
I'll let it rest a bit and maybe skim some specific bits tomorrow, then Wednesday morning, off it goes to Madame Agent.
Go Barb! Ehhhxcellent!
Gud, it will be tomorrow before I can have a look. (looks at clock) Well, later today.
Excellent Barb!
No problem Beverly, I just thank you for taking a look.
Oooph. Sooooo tired. I was exhausted when I finished last night after 1AM, but I just couldn't settle down. Mind was racing entirely too hard and fast. So up again at 6:45.
I'll probably give the last two chapters a final looksee and then send, just to get the bastard off my desk.
Glad to hear it's leaving your desk. That has to feel good.
I'm very close to being done with revised chapter 4. It's another short chapter but not out of line with chapter size in the revision. It was a such a perfect place to break though and it's right before a change in POV. Chapter 5 will be all brand spanking new stuff, but it will be pretty short.
I'm thinking after generating new stuff for chapter 5, I may go back to chapter 1 to make a few changes based on comments I've received. I've already made a few.
SCRIPT TIP THAT'S NOT IN A BOOK
Don't read Nick Hornby and write "Entourage" at the same time. While it makes for a nice tour of The Male Experience, you'll find yourself wondering when Johnny Drama got a "mobile" pretty fast.
Chapter 4 first revision is done. I also went back and added more revisions to chapter 1. I'm thinking of posting the evolution of chapter 1 on my blog. I think that could be kind of interesting. There are at least 4 versions so far that I could post up there.
Tonight, more chapter 5 I think. I have a couple of paragraphs, but that's it so far. Hopefully, it will be the last all new chapter for a bit.
I worked on my blog for awhile and finally really got going on chapter 5. Chapter 5 is all brand new so it is the first time I've written something brand new since I've done some revision. Chapter 1 was all new, but I hadn't revised anything yet when I wrote it. I think my initial writing has improved quite a bit as a result of having done some revision.
