96,896 words. 39 chapters. Three Drafts. Thousands of words cut. First two endings cut. Ending changed. Now to get the last 13 chapters to the Story Editor.

Weirdest thing is that I only added 5000 words in the last five days. It seems like twice as much. Of course, there were scenes cut and added, so it may be more like 7500 words, but still. In November I wrote over 6000 words in one day!

REWRITING is about three times as hard as writing. And that’s coming from someone who likes to do both.
