Tune-ups are standard maintenance, but it doesn't mean they don't take time. Nevertheless, I'm making good progress on the revision. I'm on target to meet my goal of completing the first draft by the month's end.
It's interesting how the work has moved so quickly yet seems slow. If you'd asked me a week ago if I thought I would be this far, I would have said no. But, on the other hand, it seems that no matter how many hours I put in, that goal is just out of reach. Still, I am heartened by the response to the news that I'm tinkering away. It helps with the motivation when I hit those word jams. Sometimes nothing is more daunting than an incomplete sentence or a half-formed paragraph. I'm careful not to burn out, which is always a danger when you are on a creative roll. Being tired makes for sloppy work. It's the metaphorical dropping of the wrench. So I'm balancing the writing with researching what it takes to self-publish, but that's another series of blog posts. For now, I just wanted to say it all looks good under here. RM
