No matter what

I had said I would finish last night no matter what. I only had two chapters left so what could go wrong? Last night was it. No matter what...

No matter what, except for going back to add a fairly vital scene to Chapter 15 which I suddenly realised wasn't there, but is referenced in Chapter 19. Oops.

And changing the fish tank water. Fish don't like that. Giant mutant goldfish like it least of all and delighted in flicking water EVERYWHERE while they were being moved to safety.

I got Chapter 19 done, but not 20. I tried to start it but I was too sleepy so it wasn't a good time to deal with that.

So 19 went like this: added 809 words, and with the additions to Chapter 15, the total is now 61,637. I'm still 8363 words short in total. I've 7 pages still to go.

Best typo: "Tim grows short," said the King.

Poor Tim.

I also got a bit distracted by this.

ooooOOOOoooooo

I wonder when it comes out here.

Phew

I've finished the first pass edit - 62,576 words. So I need to add a hell of a lot more which is a bit disappointing. But at least I have something to work with. I've put out a call for beta readers to see what I can do with it. I'll probably still fiddle with it over the next couple of days but I think I could do with a bit of a rest right now.

EWH is reading over my shoulder! We're meant to be watching In the Shadow of the Moon . Nice to be able to type without looking at the keys. We have just realised we have only four degress of Kevin Bacon which is most exciting. Seriously though, if you haven't seen this film, get it. It's wonderful.
