Shadows
As I get things done I cast a shadow
One day I will no longer cast a shadow
But that is fine
Because I have done enough

Received the feedback from my beta reader for the Historian Assistant. Thanks Gaby. Lots of good stuff in her feedback. I’m picking through it and then It’s back to editing. See how fast I can get through it. Remember: Writing is rewriting.

Bernie Sanders: "We have a president who is moving this country rapidly toward authoritarianism...to a large degree the future of this country rests with a small number of Republicans in the House & Senate who know better, who do know what the Constitution is about, and it's high time they stood up"

Just finished going through chapter six where the MC, Eileen, learns to fly the ship. It reads like crap. The pacing is wrong, not enough internal dialogue. Missing the motivation of why she has so much riding on this and the conflict of why the historian wants this.
Well, time for a rewrite 😐

Just finished my edit run on the Historian Assistant. Now at 97K words. I’m going to go through it with ProWritinfAid and see what it finds.
But I may give myself a few days break before diving in again.
