Just sent out Chapter 7 today. It's the first chapter since two that isn't 100% rewritten, and therefore I'm not sure if I'm happy with it. Chapter 8 is basically done, except for a bit I need to rewrite at the beginning. After that, it's almost entirely finished until Chapter 12.

Thus far, what I have up to Chapter 12 is an alarming 62,000 words. Hopefully, I will be able to make the second 12 chapters more concise. I don't think that will be as much of a problem.

I've been reading a lot lately, at work. It's my way of filling the well while I can't really have the time to go out and do things. I just finished "Son of a Witch", which is the sequel to "Wicked".
I liked it, though not quite as well as "Wicked". I feel like it both tied up loose ends from the last story and created a few new ones. I also read the first in one of Tamora Pierce's trilogies, "Trickster's Choice" and was annoyed to find that it's a trilogy...and I don't have the second two books. Fail.

Anyway, the thought of being halfway done with editing (not to mention a revised chapter later in the book, from when I decided to get out of my funk by going backwards). Maybe with all the time off I've got at the end of the year, I can avoid eating natto.

I shall hope and endeavor.

Merry Christmas, everyone!
