The beautiful part of writing is that you don’t have to get it right the first time, unlike, say, a brain surgeon.
–Robert Cormier

I was hoping to spend only an hour or so writing tonight, but I spent closer to 2-1/2 hours on revisions to Office Relations. I was on a roll and didn’t want to stop. The good news is that I feel like the story is a lot stronger. I also think it is almost ready for me to let someone else read it. I’d like to get someone else’s input about whether a few lines are as funny as I think they are.

It’s hard to imagine that I was worried about finding a volunteer to read it. The tough part will be deciding which of the volunteers to choose.

Once I’m done with OR, I will start revisions for the NaNoWriMo story, which finally has a working title: In Her Eyes. I printed it off, and it’s 159 pages. My tentative goal is to expand it to 90,000 words. To meet that goal, I have a ways to go.
