\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 (Humor) Helpful advice<\/a> in the event of terrorist attacks. I like the one with the blaring radio.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 How to Move Posts from LiveJournal to WordPress<\/a> is my first article for Associated Content. (Paid more than the cup of coffee I’d expected.) I really should finish backing up my old LJ posts someday.<\/p>\n

Writing Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Last week’s goal:
\nRevise more: through ch 10 (except for dealing with the scene that might need cut).<\/em><\/p>\n

What I did:
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Dealt with the scene that needed cut. Had to move four bits of description elsewhere — I tend towards sparseness so can’t afford to lose any. Two bits went to a scene where I’d cut some boring bits, and the other two went to a scene that had previously been set in a place I’d been setting far too many scenes. Hopefully it is now more interesting.
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Unstickynoted [1] ch 4-10
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Dealt with some notebook notes for ch 4-10
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Started unstickynoting ch 11-15<\/p>\n

[1] unstickynote <\/em>– Look at each page of the manuscript and make all corrections marked with sticky notes. Generally these are smaller (or at least scene-specific) things. Larger concerns are scribbled in a notebook.<\/p>\n

This week:
\nFinish unstickynoting ch 11-15
\nGo over the notebook notes for ch 4-10
\nGo over crits for ch 1-3
\nDo some reviews (have at least 2 to return)<\/p>\n

Unstickynoting is easier than dealing with the notebook notes, which is why I put those off last week.<\/p>\n

I’m not going to finish this before March like I wanted, probably, but I’ll see how close I can get.<\/p>\n

On the one hand I feel like I’m wasting my time (first novel, why bother fixing it again, better to write a new one). On the other hand, I think I’m getting a good return on my time as far as quality goes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
