Today was a good day of work.
All I did was read. I got the correction reading I've been doing completed. Now to get the corrections done and upload a cleaned up version. Like I've been saying, I feel like all I need to do now is double-check the rough spots and call the rest good. I have made a couple non-necessary changes and I'll double-check those too. However, the unnecessary changes outweigh the necessary ones this time. I don't think those will ever go away. I could read this book every month for the next ten years and still find something to tweak.
It'll never be perfect and it's time to make the fixes and step away. :/
I also did some editing work on the early chapters of part 2. I still have 6-10 chapters to rewrite, toward the end. Maybe now that I'm done with part 1, I can focus on that again. I want to have the rewrite of part 2 done before November so I can just jump into the rewrite of part 3. I have sixteen more days. I can do this.
I'm off tomorrow. I'll be posting chapter 3 on Monday. I hoping to publish part one (the whole week) by the end of the week!
See you Monday!

So, I was productive yesterday, even though I didn't get everything done that I needed to.
I need to slow it down a little, I've got way too much on my plate writing-wise. So, I'm concentrating on getting the rest of Part 1 read so I can get it published!! I can't read all day, however, so I'm also going to do a little rewriting in there, but not at the pace I had set for myself earlier.
Today, however, will be spent doing some NaNo prep. I'm going to the store and purchasing supplies to make 31 frozen crock-pot meals. Then, I'll be spending the rest of the day putting them together. No, it's not writing, but it is necessary if I want to have as much time in November for pure writing.
And I really want that.
I posted Chapter 1 in the pages of the blog. Please go check it out. Feel free to leave a comment, if you wish. If you've read the preview on CreateSpace, it's the same material. I'll be posting Chapter 2 on Friday.
Thanks for everything!
See you tomorrow.

I had another good day again yesterday. This week has been so invigorating.
Along with getting all the corrections made and the cleaned up manuscript loaded onto CreateSpace, I wrote three chapters. Two of them were new and I totaled over 5000 words.
If I can keep this pace up for the next seven weeks (oooo... that sounds really long), I should be able to meet the 150,000 word count goal I set for NaNoWriMo. But then, I won't be working on corrections or editing. It'll just be pure writing. I can't wait.
Today should be similar. We have an activity to go to at four which should take about an hour and I need to prepare for the class I'll be teaching in church tomorrow, but that shouldn't take too long. My hubby is out of the state right now. So, other than those two things and probably feeding the kids, I should be free to write ALL DAY. I'm giddy.
I won't be writing tomorrow. I'll check back in on Monday! Have a good weekend.
