Three days to go until the deadline for Pound.
And while it is true that my dog has moved the majority of her
belongings outside (i.e. away from crazy woman) in preparation for this final
push, I am surprisingly right on schedule! (The fact that an exclamation point
was needed at the end of that sentence tells you just how rare my “on-schedule-ness”
truly is)
So, for the next three days I will be finalizing 12k words a day.
By “finalizing” I mean…
-Making sure all the pretty connective tissue is in place between scenes.
-That all said-scenes agree with what came before them.
-Final fact checking on all the true tidbits and local flavor I insist
on stuffing into my novels.
-The painful and oftentimes harrowing cutting of scenes. (This is why
my dog is hiding in the garden. It can get pretty bloody around here. *lol*)
-Grammatical snazzing up. (The most boring process of finalization but
really critical, unfortunately.)
And there you have it.
My next three days laid out for you.
Feel free to pull up a futon and wait this out in the backyard with my
dog. Just watch out for the darn cat.
Until tomorrow…
Chloe
