marfiskThis is an amazing day. A wondrous thing happened :). The rewrite of Kyrnie is complete with the final version weighing in at a hefty 132,194 from an original 117,930, which mean I added 14,264. Besides the worries about length, I think the story is a lot stronger for this process. I do still have global changes to do and then a read through before it's ready for its next crit pass, especially necessary since so much is essentially first draft material now, but I don't envision another redo of this extent on this novel again, something that is much of a relief.
I have to say that the rewrite would not have been possible without the efforts of those who critted this novel and the story would have been tons weaker. For all my moaning, I'm happy :). Now we'll have to wait some months to see what comes of it, but that's a tale for another day :).
