Revisions and a Birthday

So, yesterday was my birthday. I have this thing about birthdays -- I don't like them. I don't like getting older. I would be content to stay the same age forever.

I suppose it's not so bad. Most people think I'm younger anyway. But in my mind...dude, I'm getting OLD!!

Regardless, have a yummy cyber cupcake!



My day was nice, though. Had dinner with a friend and went to the casino, where I didn't win at all. What I didn't do was work on my revisions.

I'm on Chapter 6 now. And Chapter 6 is going to require another overhaul. I swear, I wrote this book all out of order. And it's driving me CRAZY!! I don't know how many chapters I have. There were 17 in the original, but I had two chapter 5's and two chapter 13's. And I immediately cut the first two chapters when I started and another a couple days ago. And I'm sure there will be more cuts and that I'll combine some things. This is the messiest rewrite I've ever had, but the results are dramatically better. And so I push on...
