muse & osg - It was running horribly slow. To the point where I couldn't do anything. Ran a virus/malware scan and everything come up clean. Now it's running fine. Prolly a glitch. And yeah -- I have about 6 or 7 backups of everything at any given time, so I'm covered (I'm, uh, quite anal about my backups).
2361 today.
Little bit scared but I have finally posted for a beta for the first part of the book (basically the stuff I'm going to send in to the competition). I find asking for betas so scary, but I think this would be better than me rewriting it eighteen million times.
So no real wordage today, just that.

muse - yep, coffee is now the official sponser of my writing.
I wrote some words last night, re-doing an early scene to shift the POV. Today I'm prepared to start working out my timeline issue in the ms itself rather than in a notebook to be inserted later.
Great work, everyone! muse, I definitely think deleted text should count. There is a stage at which word count is not a proper indicator of progress. Sometimes negative counts are the best.
If anyone has a kindly grandmother editor out there, I could really do with one right at the moment.
but boy, I'm getting exhausted, mostly because I'm now on the road 2 hours each day I wasn't before. Hard to do much when I get home besides collapse!
