I finished up the editing I was doing on the epic werewolf masterpiece. There are still a few rough patches that I've marked for some more editing - mostly because I can see that something in that section needs to be fixed but I can't quite figure out how to fix it yet - and I have one major overhaul in the mythology that I want to go over and make more cohesive, but it's a whole lot cleaner and more coherent than it was.
Next step? One more editing pass to fix the fixables and then I'm going to work on finding someone who doesn't mind reading 260 pages of werewolves fighting bloody battles, having sex and putting their lives back together.
I'm going to be honest here, editing is scary stuff. I have this deep down fear that I'm going to take out something pivotal to the plot and forget to add it back in. I changed my main character's real name (not the name she goes by in the book but the one she was born with) from this book to the 2nd story and forgot to correct it in this one. The change makes sense in the grand scheme of things, I just forgot to change it.
So, that was my day. That and vacuuming and laundry and changing the sheets on the beds.
'Tis a glamorous life I lead.
I'm out. I have that work thing tomorrow.
Later.
