I’ve finished another chapter in the HOUSE OF CARDS revisions and and I know what to do next. I also broke 200 pages on the revised manuscript and am a couple thousand words shy of 50K. I’m also about 15 pages behind where I was at the same chapter in the original manuscript, but what one might delicately call “a whole fucking shitload” of stuff has happened that did not happen previously, and all the stuff that comes later still has to happen.
