Well, this rewrite is going swimmingly. Slowly, but swimmingly. Last week, despite houseguest for an extended weekend, I managed to add just over 5500 words to the rewrite.
I’ve changed up an initial relationship a bit. It’s a little more adversarial and I think makes it a little more lively. It also (I hope) helps add to the tension and mystery surrounding this character. (Things which will be revealed over the course of the trilogy.)
I do think this draft is a lot smoother than the previous versions. I’ve moved things around, changed the order of reveals, and just generally improved the pacing of the world-building in this book. Mostly it’s in regards to the fae and their mythology.
How are your WiPs going?
Rewrite is going … quickly and slowly at the same time, which seems odd … 🙂 Glad you got more written!

Not odd at all. I totally get it. I've actually gotten to copy and paste some stuff into the rewrite which is when it goes quick. Then it slows down a bit but then sometimes the writing of new goes faster and better than I could hope.
