Increasingly difficult adventures in editing, with a fire-axe.
I am currently in the process of totally restructuring large portions of Late Eclipses, making the book a) substantially better, and b) substantially less familiar to it. I really feel like I'm salting the earth behind some of my revisions. It's a little mind-breaking.
The further I get in this series, the harder it gets to go through these little slash-and-burn adventures. Not because I'm more wedded to my darlings -- I am, if anything, less wedded to my darlings -- but because there's more and more weight to deal with on the shoulders of everything that's already happened.
Bah. Back to the salt mines.
