Chapter 5 Came and Went

July 26, 2004

Chapter 5 has finally left the building.

Please don’t assume from the four-month gap between chapters 4 and 5, that I’ve spent the last four months polishing Chapter 5 to absolute perfection. What really happened is that I wrote a first revision of Chapter 5 four months ago that was so bone-crushingly awful that I had to abandon it and let the whole thing sit for a while. Shortly thereafter, my life got really busy, so “for a while” turned into four months.

When I finally had time to revisit it about a week ago, I had to scrap the whole thing and start again from scratch. I’m still not particularly pleased with it, but at least it’s done, so let’s just move on. “We’ll fix it ‘in post,’” as they say.

In the meantime, I’ll start work on Chapter 6…and sit back and wait for the inevitable phone call from The Eagles’ lawyers.

    Hurray for chapter 5! I hope that 6 doesn’t give you as much trouble as 5 sounded like it did.

    It’s like an old friend coming back… Or a present when you weren’t expecting one.

    Thank-you.

    I thought you should know- I’m implementing a strict “break dancing Fridays” policy in my life. I’m brushing up my “worm” as we speak.
