With No Omissions
Stop me if I’m repeating myself…
As seems to be the way these days, most of my day has been spent with a pen and a manuscript making changes. I find this fascinating, but I suspect most of you lot won’t, which makes blogging about it a tricky prospect. What I will say is that the first pass picked up most of the surface issues with spelling and grammar and duplication and stuff; this one is getting more into the meat of it. That’s what I meant the other day when I said this is the process of turning out a reasoanble first draft.
What it’s also done is to suggest what my next one might be, should I shoose to stay in this world with these characters. With several more months of pseudo-lockdown imminent, I have plenty of spare time to get on with it.

I spent time today with those scanned pics I mentioned yesterday. I dug out an old laptop and imported them into Lightroom. They’re a mixed bunch and I reckon the problem is with the scans, but for the most part they’re saveable with some manipulation. I think a clean scan from the negatives should yield reasonable results.
The photo on the right is one of them. I don’t normally put pics of the kids up here, but Lindsay spent time this afternoon having an x-ray on a turned ankle and is feeling the pain.
