Sweet.

Maybe I *will* have my new shoes by my birthday. They arrived in Greensboro an hour ago.

Yay!

Now to clear out the inbox of necessary replies (also: archiving) before lunch. Then after lunch: editing chapter 3. (Skipping chapter 2 for now, to stick with Atesh's POV for a while.)

Editing progress, part the ... third?

In the hour I turned off my internet, I edited one scene, for a net 401 words, which brings my total to 56790. (I kind of wish it had been an even 400, because then I'd have 56789 words.)

Since beginning revisions, I've added approximately 1000 words, in four scenes. This is why I'm not extremely concerned about needing to come up with another 34.5k words: they're in there; I just need to bring them out. And I know I have to add a few more scenes here and there, anyway.

The weekend is catching up with me. Hopefully I'll sleep well tonight and until my alarm. I'd like to get up and work out in the morning.
