Yesterday's to do list included:
1. Panic.
2. Don't panic.
3. Rinse and repeat.
I pretty much went through another round of edits/revisions of the book last night after I realized I needed a clean copy for my school's library. We have to turn our thesis into a PDF for the library so that others can check it out and read it (weird and scary concept). I didn't want to turn in a copy with typos, missing words, etc. so I fixed all of that, plus did some more tweaking. There are still a few areas where I can beef it up, but that's for another day. Anyway, I didn't have as much editing as I thought I did based on my mentors' notes so I was pretty pleased with that. I also have to tell myself that it doesn't have to be 100 percent perfect now. Once an editor gets his/her hand on it, who knows what else is going to change?
But the best part is that I still fall in love with my book a little bit more each time I go through it.
And it occurred to me as I saw
fanmix's posts on my friends list that when someone out makes an actual fanmix for my book, that would be the day I knew I made it as a writer. Haha. Dumb, I know.
Tonight, watching "Let The Right One In" (finally!) and practicing my thesis presentation.
It also looks like the Heart concert on July 3 is a go! Whoo!
Now that I've posted my Big Bang art for
morgan32 and
valiant, all my fandom obligations are done. You think this is the right time to take a step back? Hmm...
