Editing

anthimeria: unicorn rampant, first line of Kipling's "The Thousandth Man" (The Novel)
Taking this morning (I am heading to the Discount Armageddon release party this evening!) to edit a short story I wrote a few months ago that I really like.  Unfortunately it's 8k words of YA high fantasy, and I'm not sure what I'll do with it once it's edited, but whatever.

It's a tad bit brain-destroying, though, because I spent last night with all 26 pages of it printed out and going through line-by-line editing.  Which one must do before one moves on to more interesting editing, but oh, god, does it hurt my brain.  Least favorite part of writing?  MAYBE.

But I will get it done, and then I will reward myself by working on Horizons some more.
