That’s what I did. Slogged on to some 600 words and sent it off the editor asking for further direction.

I’ve been transcribing from a printout of something I thought I had lost.

A little over six hundred words so far, with about eighteen hundred to go.

It’s a perfect opportunity to tighten up the prose, but guess what? I’m changing a word here and there, but no major re-write.

It’s all descriptive narrative, from the opening of yet another novel I hope to complete. Scenes that I composed in my head long before I sat down to record them. I don’t want to change a thing.

But I do want to see where it goes. Outer space, I’m pretty sure.
