Year Seven:: NRSV (New Revised Standard Version!)
Because I need time to contemplate where I’m going, how I'm getting there, and at what pace I'm pushing the plot, I’m going to be going back and editing the old chapters. Needless to say, in a story that has stretched to nearly 240 pages, there are edits that simply need to be made, and they need to be made BEFORE I get into the grist of the final chapters. Don't worry. As Martha Stewart would say, it's a good thing.

"Once upon a time, they say, there was a girl . . . there was a boy . . . there was a person who was in trouble. And this is what she did . . . and what he did . . . and how they learned to survive it. This is what they did . . . and why one failed . . . and why another triumphed in the end. And I know that it's true, because I danced at their wedding and drank their very best wine."
-- Terri Windling, "Ashes, Blood, and the Slipper of Glass."

You know the saying, when it comes to writing, you have to "kill your darlings." Well, once it's all done, I'll post some of the scenes that were downright painful for me to cut.

*Chapters with significant modifications (and chapters that are totally new) will be marked with an asterisk*
