Novel Editing - nearing the end of EdMo
Okay, here I am with two days to go until the end of National Novel Editing Month (NaNoEdMo) and I’ve still got 6.5 hours to go! I’ve done nothing on several days during the last week due to feeling a bit under the weather, and then last night I came down with a cold!
So it’s going to be a real effort just to get the hours done by the end of March, and that’s still going to leave a massive amount to be done on the editing front, as my efforts haven’t been very effective. I’ve done the basic reorganisation of scenes, spelling and grammar corrections and started writing a few new scenes… but the new scenes aren’t going well. It seems like the momentum of the rough draft NaNoWriMo phase just hasn’t come back. The new scenes are less central to the plot, so I suppose I’m not as interested, plus the whole editing phase hasn’t been much fun.
I will definitely have to spend a lot of hours finishing the editing, and I also need to get a better editing process and attitude for next time!
Cheers for now,
Andy.
