Crossing the 200 page mark on the edits Kerry provided for The Last Track felt pretty good. While less than ten percent of the novel needs attention, the bulk of the issues are in the first half of the book; therefore the second half will–I hope, dare I dream to be so naive–go much easier.
Ideally I’ll have this all wrapped by Tuesday, take a few days to read a hard copy closely and then email it to Kerry for the final pass. Like Oriana, her turnaround time verges on superhuman, so she’ll get it back in plenty of time for a once over. I’m also going to have her look at another project I want to start shopping, one a long way from being done.
After all, I do have other wares.
