Editing Update 29/08/07

August 30th 2007 00:40
Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday...

It's the hottest day of the year and I haven't left the house at all. My internet has returned from its way-too-long vacation. My editing hasn't really returned yet. I'm not able to get into it like I was before; the heat has completely fried my brain and I'm finding myself completely unable to think straight.

I did get two critiques back. The first seven or so chapters are the only ones anybody's really complained about, which is a happy moment for me. The unhappy moment is that there was really quite a lot of complaining about the first seven or so chapters. I may post the prologue up here to get some comments on it. I'm horrible at beginnings and my books tend to get better and have really awesome endings, but beginnings? *Snicker*


Talking about Moonshadow, by the way. I'll be getting down to business and doing a basic revision of the first ten chapters tonight, and printing out a fair number of said chapters just because. I hate printing. Our printer is slow. It's really no good at all. But whatever.

At least I've gotten some decent sleep and should be able to get some decent writing and revising done tonight. I'm off to take a bath, and then I shall return to the world of the internet... *Is happy*
