As I chug along with the rewrite/revisions of Killer Eyes, I find myself thinking about how much it's being improved, not only in the writing, but the story itself. I wrote the first draft at least three years ago, and I think I only passed through it once after that, because I got busy with the John Dunn story, and I was always going through Killer of Killers and/or The Vase.
But now that I have a complete and thorough understanding of POV, the Killer Eyes story is really pouncing out at me as a very well executed story and the events are coming together nicely. I might have to delete a couple scenes, I already deleted one, but that's how it goes with revisions.
Right now I'm on about page 180 or so, out of 320 pages, so I'm more than halfway done. That's what happens when you keep at it. You make progress, and you get done. If you just sit around making excuses, that means two things. One, you're not really into it, and two, you won't get done. But I'm really into it, and I'm getting done.
That's all.
