Well, that’s it, folks.

It took an especially long time to plug the holes in this chapter.  Hoo boy.

I now have Chapters 1, 2, 3,  and 4 in their first draft formats. Of course, this is all a working draft, so I’m sure they’ll change again, even though I spent this week editing and pouring over each page.  It’s good.

I’m excited.  I’ve got chapters 5 – 8 not only outlined, but begun.  It’s about filling them in with the meat and potatoes.  Once those are done, it’s on to Part II.

I’m pretty sure I’ll be done Part I way before Christmas.   That puts my far ahead of my tentative schedule, baby.  Ooh yeah!

Feeling good.

Feeling oh so tired.  But now, it’s a good tired.
