I finished the second draft.

151,390 words, mercifully shorter than I was anticipating.

Starting the third draft tomorrow, as soon as I know I have the first three chapters up to speed, I'll need to start the grind with the agencies. Hey ho the nonny, it has to be done, alas.

But, hey - second draft, finished! That's good, isn't it? :o)

Hee.

Thank you! Yes, it's a relief to be sure. Of course, I've got to read it through a third time yet but I refuse to panic. *g*

Oooh, twirls! Thank you baby. I shall endeavour to keep my dinner down regardless.

I'd say so! Oh yes. Definitely. :)

Thank you. :o)

I won't pretend I'm not pleased. Still plenty to do but it's coming on well and I be glad.

I've got to read it through yet, though, horrors could yet lurk within. :o)

Cool! You really made smoking progress on this second draft. I so hope this gets picked up - I really want to read it; it sounds just amazingly neat and interesting...

Good luck with the third draft and the agency rigamarole!

I've been giving it a lot of time, to be sure. But then, it needed it. :o) I suspect there's a fair bit of work to be done on it yet - but thanks for the kindly words of encouragement. I'm hoping to finish the third draft inside a month and have it out to agents in about a fortnight.

That's VERY good! Go you! =>}
