Well, it seems to have been a while since I blogged! I got caught up with a new job that packed all my testing and training into one very busy week. It's the most intensive waitressing job I've ever had, but the effort is paying off.
In between feeding people, I managed to print out Ravel and make an editing pass with a disgustingly pink pen. Now I just need to transfer the edits to computer. I was really hoping to get that 12 000 words of fiction processed sooner, but oh well!
I'm feeling pretty good about Ravel's structural integrity. It's a sort of love triangle that reflects the Aligare world's positive mindset. Other than one scene timing snarl, there's not much I need to overhaul -- there's just word choice fiddling. My paper edits always have lots of marked phrases with no accompanying notes. That's how I indicate that I just don't quite like the flow, rhythm, or nuance of these words. I find those things easier to experiment with when I have a Delete key.
So, I hope to resume blogging with some semblance of regularity! In other Aligare-related news, I'm also working on the real, physical object that will be part of Ravel's cover. Maybe I'll reveal that soon!
