Read-Through Complete… And it’s not Pretty

Editing update: I’ve finally finished my first readthrough of my book. Here’s What it looks like.

Reading it all the way through was a more difficult task than I anticipated. The huge number of mistakes and areas of bad writing don’t make for smooth reading, especially when I have to stop each time I find an error and mark it, make note of why it’s marked, and suggest ways to fix it while resisting the urge to do so then and there, or simply throw the whole book in the trash.

Overall, I’m not disappointed in the state Laz is in right now. I expected there to be mistakes, and I’m confident that they can be smoothed out. For now, I’ll concentrate on doing so, and hopefully I’ll have a completed second draft soon.
