First editing pass is done. I feel like I’ve fixed pathetically little in it, although I think I did manage to fix the problem where I’d written approximately 6 work days and 3 weekend days into the 8 days the novel covers. o.O Tomorrow I’ll transfer back to the other computer and fix the scenes I’ve left notes for myself in, and with any luck I’ll collect all the questions I need to put to the Great Minds Of LiveJournal and get them posted tomorrow night so Thursday I can…
mid-week preview…
