olmueThree scenes added.
Two different pairs of chapters combined and/or rearranged.
4000 words deleted.
Football scenes sent off for expert opinion.
It's amazing what an hour of uninterrupted planning (ie, waiting for DD at a swim party) can do for you. Plus an afternoon when you are not the Only Responsible Adult around.
I think my book is shorter than DH's now. Yay! (His is academic research--we are both trying to finish before school lets out.)
I think I have the bones now. If I do, then it's mostly a matter of tidying up the text on the page (as opposed to moving things around and large changes).
I'm exhausted and ready to take a break tomorrow. My house is messy and I need to practice the organ. But today was definitely productive!

Enjoy taking a break from it, and then getting stuck back into it again! ;o)
