I am so tired of this story. I do not want to work on it anymore. It's boring and slow and tedious. Hmmm, most be the 1/3 mark. 30% actually, based on word count. The scene count below is lower because there were some long scenes in the bits just done inc. a 3000 word info dump. Woohoo!

I don't feel like I'm making progress though, and it's nothing to do with % or plots. I'm just making a small number minor/sentence level edits as I go. Effectively copying & pasting what I had to another document. OK so it mightn't need much work. Yet when I finished the second draft, I felt I had a big, unwieldy mass of words that needed majoring beating into shape. *sigh* One of me is/was wrong.

It might be because there's not much wrong with the opening chapters. (Hahaha)

It might be because I'm focusing on the structural stuff as I work, and that hasn't collapsed ye isn't too bad at this stage. Whereas I should be looking at the emotional/sensory stuff as well. That's the real point of this rewrite.

But really, who knows?
