Revisions

Still doing the revisions but the story is getting better. Some stories are like that. I had done something and it sucked the likfe out of the story, but a bit of judicous cutting , the life and tension are back.
Sometimes it is better to withhold information until the point it will have the most impact.

It will be finished in the next couple of days. Then I have more revisions to do on the Roman Undone. In theory they should be quick.

I can identify with that, Michelle. I've just done the most challenging set of revisions ever! As soon as I changed one thing the tension ebbed elsewhere, or something else had to change or the plot toppled like a house of cards. This was the book that almost broke me! Interesting still to get so caught out when I've been writing for a long time now, but I have learned a lot.
