Edited a hundred pages of HoS last night, but I haven’t gotten to the icky stuff yet. A lot of the early stuff is more or less unchanged (er, except the whole new plotline in there), so it’s pretty solid. I think it’s around chapter 10 or 12 that it starts becoming unbelievably awful. :) Had a bit of a panic this morning because I couldn’t find the ink that goes with the Amazing Glass Pen that Sarah sent me.

*little dance*
Trent’s reading IMMORTAL BELOVED and apparently enjoying it quite a lot. *happy little dance* That’s always nice to hear. :) I’ve spent half the day waiting for my site that I’m working on to come back up, and now that it has I just sort of want to glare at it.
