done. *tud*

Done. My god. So tired, but done.

The manuscript is 442 pages long. I added 31 pages; 12 on this second revision round, and 19 on the first. It is *so* much better than it was before. I am very, very pleased with it. I am very, *very* tired, but I’m very pleased. I feel as if I’ve accomplished something fairly worthwhile with this book.

I’ve just done a spellcheck and posted it to half of my test readers, asking them to check it for continuity. I think I’ve cleaned up all the continuity issues, but I’ve also read it five times in the last four weeks, so the fresh eyes will almost certainly catch things that I’m too tired/too familiar to see now.

I have caught a cold on top of my allergies, and we’re babysitting Emily’s cat while she’s Outside playing with Common Rotation and UFD (biyatch). The combination of an extra cat, a cold, and the allergies sent me into an asthma attack last night, and I slept for absolute shit. I’m completely exhausted.

But I am .done. with this book. And it’s good. And I’m happy about that.

G’night, Gracie.
