One last post (and new metrics) before Monday eats me alive

My beta for LM #12 returned the document to me this morning, and I've only just had a chance to actually save the document to my hard drive.  I've also done a quick skim through, too, and holy whoa, I have to say that this part of the series is going to be the best-edited one yet, because she was thorough.

If I want to meet my self-imposed deadline to get this posted by the Easter weekend, say, in seven days, I have to edit roughly 25 pages a day.  Possibly do-able.

So, starting tomorrow, I'll be doing something about the pesky page count meter that is currently standing at zero:


0 / 161 (0.00%)

161??? GOOD LUCK! I'm sending you all the positive vibes I have!
I really, really cannot wait for it, but don't overwork yourself, okay?

Good luck! (and if it turns out you want to enjoy Easter without burning with 25 pages/day: then make it a 2 week editing process! we understand and love you~)

and congrats to the beta for such a great job, apparently ;)

How generous is Canada vs public holidays around easter? Don't kill yourself over this, a week or two or three or four is survivable by all (surely?!?!) :)

In my province, we get Good Friday off. If you're one of the lucky ones working for the educational system or the public service, any holiday that falls on a weekend gets rolled over into Monday, and Easter Sunday becomes "Easter Monday".

Sounds like you have a Super!Beta - they are rare, make sure to send chocolates! Can't wait for the new part, but no pressure; take your time. I can always reread the last few to whet the appetite. ;P
