It's Time

I've digested editor feedback and come up with solutions.

I've created a new character, named her (twice), and done a bit of exploratory writing from her POV. Then I discovered something that changed her physicality in a big way, and she got even more interesting.

And I've finished mapping the chapters as they'll be in the new condensed-POV draft. There are 56 chapters, more than double before and shorter. Finally, chapters now have just one POV per chapter, instead of per scene, as before.

So it's time to start writing. Today.

Up to last Friday, I had a 2-hour block in the morning to write, then I'd head to work. After reading this article about makers vs. managers, I've switched up my work schedule to put my writing time in a longer block in the afternoon (and without work looming).

Right now, my goal is to finish revisions by mid-September. I may finish before then -- it's certainly possible. By then, Super-Agent Chris should be settled nicely into the Crow's nest and ready to shred my draft offer feedback.

What are you guys working on? Or are you taking some time off because August is too freaking hot to do anything else?
