Not enough, obviously, but I did also get the minimum necessary continuity done in Chapters Seven through Fourteen so that the new scene looks like it was really there all along. Also, I found and fixed another glitch caused simply by the pace at which I'm writing. I forget what I've written and implement a second explanation for something that already had a (far superior) explanation. Also at least one place where I'd typed the name of one character while clearly meaning someone else.* It's a little embarrassing, but better to catch it when I'm the only one who knows.

In other news, the revisions are producing definite flaws in the space-time continuum. I am hoping like mad that I will catch and kill all the continuity glitches before we see print. (You have to smash them with your bootheel, like Ben does to the Evil Spiderbabies at the end of IT.) I promise that this will not involve anyone's mother getting the hots for him.



The youngest of our cats has decided that the best place in the world to sleep is wedged between my back and the back of the chair. I told him that most cats find the other side of the biped more comfortable for napping, but he ignored me.
