Okay. I think I got that, at least as far as understanding it goes.

On the plus side, one novel down. Now a couple weeks of resting up from it and then going back and editing it, bashing it into shape and whatnot. And in the meantime I get to work on both my desert novel and my SciFi Big Bang. Neither of which are coming along as well or as long as I want them to, argh. I need to... something. I think I should have put more detail into my outline for the desert novel, at the very least. Maybe that'll happen today. Expanding on what needs to be done in some of those scenes. Aaand I need to update my notes on the angels, and. And and and. Too much stuff, not enough time.
