Another short one today.
I went to a company party last night which cut into my writing time. However, when I sat down to edit Smooth Running...well, let's just say this is going to be a longer project that I'd hoped.
Smooth Running was the first novel I'd completed and the early drafts of the book showed that I was re-learning how to write. (I'd taken about ten or so years off from writing prior to Smooth Running...don't ask me why. If I had a time machine...)
It still reads well, so that's good. But the opening doesn't hook me. There's some typos and my use of semi-colons is more experimental than I'd like. I can clearly see how I've grown as a writer when I compare Smooth Running to The Mageborn Mechanic.
I'm going to keep going but I may end up re-writing chapter 1 from scratch this weekend.
I'll keep you posted but...
