Oh yeah, baby.

I would just like to report that since I posted this message a week ago, I have written over 20,000 words.

Apparently the fear of the Editor is the beginning of all authorial wisdom, at least for me -- or the end of my authorial dithering, at any rate. And I am especially happy to report that after slashing Chapter Six and Seven to ribbons and rebuilding the entire sequence, it is a million bazillion quadrillion times better than the redundant, unfocused mess I had before. Plus, it now has one of my favorite secondary characters bringing the awesome in a way I didn't expect, which is always a plus...

Did I mention that today we also got a cat? Because we did, and she is lovely. I will spam you with pictures of her tomorrow.

*cheers for you* This sounds great. Both the book and the cat.

As a sidenote, I want to thank you for posting about that t-shirt from Threadless a few months ago. :)

Go Rebecca Go!

And let's hear it for razing and rebuilding. I LOVE doing that. Well, I love it when it works. Which, for you, it clearly has.

The only thing better is surprising yourself, and it sounds like you did that, too.
