I did it!! I finally finished the write-in step of my revision.
Yep, that's a pic of my creation. All 500 pages of mostly handwritten, double-spaced, crossed-out, arrowed, sticky-noted words.
Now to type all those words into my word-processor of choice, tweak, line edit and prepare them for agent queries. Sounds like a daunting task, trying to figure out what all those loops and arrows might mean. But after toiling to this stage of rewriting with a binder full of worksheets and analysis, frankly this next step seems like a cakewalk.
I plan to celebrate this milestone by taking a mini-break from this revision and participating in NaNoWriMo, purchasing new software, attending a celtic festival and enjoying all that November brings. For when December starts, I'll dive into that sea of words and race to the finish.

which book is it?!?! Schrivener looks cool,despite that is it only available for mac at the moment :-)
ReplyDeleteThe book I reference is Lightning Stranded.
ReplyDeleteAl also likes the looks and functionality of Scrivener. I suspect when it is released for PCs he'll get it.
