Just got done paring down the opening three chapters (again!), getting them down to almost 50 pages. I don't think I can cut or tweak any more. Everything is in those opening chapters that needs to be, and nothing more. I may need to add a couple bits and pieces here and there to fit my themes and whatnot, but it's done!

Not a bad morning of writing and revising, even if I did have to get up at 4:30 to do it all.

12,600 / 95,000 (13.0%)

Nice! Go, blue line, go!
