Twenty-one pages left to edit. That's it. And a majority of those will be deleted from the manuscript. I am beyond thrilled. And then will come the tedious part: going through the editing marks and ensuring I haven't missed anything. Then will come the next tedious part: ensuring adequate character differentiation. And then it comes manuscript send-off time! (Assuming I can get it down to somewhere in between 150,000-125,000 words....)
