The bean didn't nap long for me so I wasn't able to get as far as I wanted to in the edit, but did discover that I needed to write another scene as a bridge between two other scenes. Just finished that scene a few minutes ago.
Still sick but not nearly as. Had a good sleep last night and have been popping the vitamin C like candy, so I guess it's helping.
Feeling giddy because, barring any more unforeseen snags, I only have 40 - some odd pages left in this edit. Then I print out a paper copy. Woohoo! Always freaked out by how many pages there are. How many words. I'm always in awe when I see the amount of work I've done. That all that stuff came from my brain.
Then I write a synopsis and I'm done! The synopsis is always a giant pain in the ass, but it has to be done. hair-tearing experience because it's so hard to condense so much into just 2 to 5 pages. Crazy, because my books are so full of action.
So I really have learned the meaning of "highlights". The trick is to figure out the most crucial highlights to include.
Going to bed early tonight to try and kick the rest of this cold.
Off to bed before I nod off here on the couch. Over and out.
