Revision Complete

The first revision of my short story is complete and in the hands of my primary CP. It took a little longer than I would have thought for less than 8,000 words.

I was amazed at the big stuff (two paragraphs condensed into one and re-written in a way that conveyed more information) and the little stuff (several spots where I "thought" a word, but forgot to type it).

It was a nice break away from the WIP novel. As soon as I handed the revised draft off, the characters from the WIP started shouting their ideas at me. Some of them were helpful, but one character is not happy at all with the way she's being portrayed. I'll be sure to include what a whiny baby she is in an upcoming chapter. She'll dig that.
