I’m starting the revisions to my novel. I’m calling it The Waste for now although I’m not fond of that title.
I’ve read through the first 3 chapters making notes on everything that isn’t working and any place I have contradicted myself.
This is not a pretty process. In fact, after the last chapter I decided to take a snuggle break with Josh just to soothe my soul a bit. This is a seriously flawed novel but I am encouraged to find bits of my characters’ personalities shining through.
7 more chapters to go and the last one is very short so I’m planning to do 3 more today and the last 4 tomorrow. I think it’s best to get it done quickly so I can hold on to the feeling that it can all be fixed up.
