I must confess I've stalled a bit after completing chapter four. It is not due to discouragement, though. Rather, it is because I took some time for outside consultation about my progress thus far. Additionally, I am spending some time doing a second pass over all the chapters I have edited so far. After reading them aloud to some friends, I found more areas where I would like to make changes.
I also found myself spending an inordinately large amount of time figuring out how much progress I've made by going back and recounting everything over and over. To alleviate this, I created a simple spreadsheet to track my progress in the editdown. I added a link to the sidebar for anyone else interested in following my work.
I expect I will still be making posts whenever a chapter is successfully finished though. I can't help but be happy right now as I finally hit that 5k mark I was hoping for in my prelude. Well, 5606. Still... it is in the 5k vicinity.
