Fair enough.
Well, it took about an hour and a half, but I've edited chapter 1 of WIP#2. It's a very intense chapter... I think I still need to give a reason for the reader to connect with the character. He's going through some really bad stuff right off the bat... Not sure how to make the readers like him first, considering the whole story starts with this bad event - no way around that.
Going to give it one more read through, then think about what I want to do next.
ETA: Did another read-through and changed a few more things. Overall I've lost about 100 words from this chapter, but it's reading a fair bit better.
