rolanniHave I mentioned that I hate daylight savings time?
Friday, I read what I had of Longeye. Saturday and today, I spent rewriting chapters seventeen and eighteen. In one sense, it's nothing short of awesome how many new and interesting ways I'm finding to sabotage myself on this book. After it's done, you get down-time, brain. Promise.
In other writing-related news, the copy edited manuscript of Duainfey should be arriving tomorrow. *Sharon locates red pen and sticky-flags and puts them where the cats will find them and disperse them*
It rained like a sonofagun yesterday; and we still have snow cover! Also? Flood warnings. And! The plowman has delivered his bill, a sure sign that winter is well and truly over. It's time; this one has gone on just a thought too long.
And a note to a person not myself: Yessir, it's true that the project we're collaborating on isn't due until April 1. That means I need the materials from you before April 1, so that I can put them into Mandated Order. Ideally, I should receive those materials at least a week before April 1, and not the morning of the day. Thanks.
Progress, for some value of progress, on Longeye:
50278 / 100000 words.
50% done!
