creeping out only about 300/day and some major editing. I'm going back to flesh out those placeholder characters. In my case, those are key characters to the plot but not in my main cast.

Revise revise revise.  Finally happier with the opening of TIWTBWO #1. Even if it means two more nights going through the rest of it to make sure it's all consistent with the minor changes in the beginning again.

DK, you are awesome! You're like a freaking machine in creative output!

I've had a great week and averaging 1200 to 1400 per day. Interestingly, I'm now writing backward rather than forward. The ending (epilogue) came so crisp and sharp that I completed it. There will be major revision work to interrupt as I flesh out characters and plot details to mesh with the ending, but I can smell the end of the first draft. And I'm going to be happy with the result.

Nine more chapters revised, got a cool new concept in but most of this is minor. One more night and I'll be done on that.

My reward for finishing rough draft and completing major inconsistency edits will be Skin Game. It works every time. Don't even peek at the advance chapters. And it's so frickin' hard not to do so.
