May 8, 2012 Updates

Finished editing ROI... finally. Officially finished unless I want to reedit it for publication or whatnot. Without all the appendix stuff, it's 196 pages long with 70,001 words. With the Appendix (author's note, short stories, preview of RoPT) it's 221 pages and 78,678 words long. So...it's a decent length--about 50 pages shorter than the first edition, after cutting out and adding whatnot. Moving on to RoPT now. I actually am renaming RoPT to just PT (Passing Time). I've never actually finished writing it in notebook, nor have I completely transferred the writing to computer, so this might take a little while longer. I plan on splitting it up in three parts, so I'm going to be condensing what I've written into one part, and having the five years later part be part two and so forth. More later. Oh, and I've titled J's P into To Be Found. That's it for now.

May 7, 2012 Updates

Working on editing ROI. It's going rather smoothly- just swimming through it. I'm on page 178 (which is around page 230 in old draft- I cut out quite a lot of unnecessary conversations and parts). I'm hoping to finish it by the end of the week, but we'll see. Oh, and I finished the play for my class- it's exactly 30 pages long (that's the maximum limit my teacher gave me). I thought it went pretty well.. Not a lot of pages for seeing character development, but I managed to do some.
