Woke up with the dawn today and excited to make the final manuscript revisions. I have panicked the past few days over tomorrow's deadline. The fact is I will have another chance to make changes after this draft. Revision is much more difficult than raw writing. I am starting to "understand" rather than feel the connections between passages, characters, words. So with this re-envisioning of the writing I can punch up or tone down different things. Well, I hope I have. I've printed out the manuscript and will sit down on my comfy studio couch and read it out-loud to myself. I plan to enjoy the read.
