It's full of fertilizer, but it's a pain in the back and several other parts to get it from under the horse to the garden where it belongs.

Unfortunately, there's not much point in getting helpful critiques if I don't then apply them to the WIP. And equally unfortunately, nobody's told me the secret incantation for magically migrating the horse manure of my story into the compost crock of publication.

That metaphor didn't come out quite right. You all probably know what I mean, regardless.

(Why, yes, I am posting in my blog to avoid editing some more? Why do you ask?)

I started poking at Easter Lilies and Imaginary Angels this evening. I can see some places that need some serious work in here now, and I need to reread all of BRAWL's crits, but it's salvageable, and more importantly, aside from one day in early November, this is the first time I've felt like I might manage any writing at all for the past month.

Granted, the holidays are going to eat my life, but it's something.

It also has the nice side benefit of shutting up Ms. Grumpy-Protagonist-in-Hole over there, as she's also the protag for Easter Lilies. ;)
