Got some trimming done - shaved off 402 words. Of course I am worried that I've removed some important bit of detail, but hey, I'll get it in editing. AGAIN.
On to the next chapter! Argh.

Notes on a couple of chapters that need to become one chapter, and some therapeutic ranting to Intro. Strangely, I feel a bit better about everything.

Got a thousand hard-fought words. I always find beginnings very hard, because I'm not really keyed into who these characters and situations are. But that's the first chapter done.

Congratulations! The rest is easy.
Almost another chapter revised, except the end of it has changed and I'm not quite sure where I want to settle it now. Will have to think about it.
Managed to bloat up another 858 words, but some of those are scenes that have been relocated and will be deleted when I get to them later. So maybe not a disaster.

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes. It was great.
Writing, what's that? I haven't had a free minute in probably 3 days. But tonight it's happening for sure. :determined:

Wrestled a total of 362 new words out of my brain this morning (mostly just editing this evening, so a net wash). Now I'm off to read for a while, recuperating from the fact that today was MONDAY! (aargh).

Finally, a bit of a negative on the word count - -716 tonight. Woo hoo! Victory? Maybe? A little?

Liz - A big "whoohoo" for you.
vagough - I hate Mondays, so I feel you there. Hugs.
1,474 words today. New beginning to my short story, and I'm loving it. Didn't wanna stop.

Well done, everyone!
My March progress: Mostly through revising the WIP. I trimmed over 6,000 words and wrote a few new scenes.
