Sharpening the machete and honing the scalpel · 5:23pm Jan 18th, 2020
Well, the time has finally come, I’m afraid. The time every author must dread:
Editing.
No, no. Not editing as in “Boy, that’s a lot of missed commas” or “Can’t believe I misspelled [X] that many times!”.
No. Editing as in “Let’s whitewash some of the Sistine Chapel’s roof”.
Eh. It’s not quite that bad. However, based upon multiple comments, critiques, and observations (for instance: “Especially at the beginning of the story, you waste far too many words repeating things that have already happened in the show. It's basically pure exposition at this point.”) I’ve decided to go through the first three chapters and heavily edit them.
I wish that could be done using a paring knife, but it appears as if a machete is more applicable.
So if anyone wishes to keep a copy of the original 2-3 chapters, I’d do so before the start of February.
