Update.

This week. Edited forty three pages. Though I suspect I shall have to go over them again. In fact, I suspect printing the entire thing out will have to happen and that could be expensive. Mr Speedy gave some excellent notes when he came round on Wednesday

'I suspect printing the entire thing out will have to happen and that could be expensive'

How many pages?

[dedbutdrmng]

Two hundred, more or less. It means a new cartridge for the laser printer (Boo, a new printer is cheaper!) Miss_Dark could probably do it at work but she has enough to do.

I could probably do it at work - you can email it to me - do you need it back quickly?

Significant Other has it covered. :)

'...Though I suspect I shall have to go over them again...'

I don't know about everyone else, but I cherish that period of blissful ignorance between the printing out and the actual reading. It's a time of hope :)

Ha! Exactly. I think there is probably a graph to be drawn with time of creation as one axis and 'opinion of work' on the other. It slopes, down, obviously.

Bible Apocrypha:

And on the eighth day, He rested and looked upon what he had created and He was pleased. By day fifteen He was not quite as pleased as He had been and had noticed a number of things that He really should change. By day twenty He looked upon what He had done and thought. 'Oh, damn, that won't work at all. I'm going to have to start again.' On day twenty five He looked upon his creation and thought. 'Sod it, I'll just leave this one as it is and not show it to anyone. Still, it was a learning experience.'

And then He rested.
