Only a couple more viewpoint sections to go. I should finish the submission draft for A MAGIC OF NIGHTFALL either today or at the latest tomorrow, then it's off to a couple first readers (actually, Denise is already reading it) and to Sheila, and I'll await comments for editorial revision. This novel has come in at a little more than 173,000 words, which makes it slightly longer than A MAGIC OF TWILIGHT...
What I find upsetting is that Denise, in going through the revisions, has already found some 'technical' errors, most of them arising from editing and changes, where I've either obviously left out a word or where I've left in a word or two from the 'old' version that should have been deleted. I swear I'd been carefully reading what I'd edited, but evidently my mind will see what it thinks is there rather than what is actually there. Obviously I've read this manuscript Too Many Times...
