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.

Congrats on getting finished. Am I reading this right. You've written a first draft and then edited, so you're technically on the second draft?

Tehnically yes, but the first draft was longhand.

I printed the whole thing off today and I am going to sit down with a pen once the kids are in bed and we've sorted out dinner.

And I'm actually looking forward to it now!
