The Hand Edit Continues

I have moved through the edit of the first section of the GIANT (which is about 20% of the book), and have made a decision. My last hand edit was an intensive affair, where I hand wrote long passages, but it was a slow process. So far, this edit is no different and has been a slow, but productive affair. I feel as though I have made a lot of good changes, but when I move onto the rest of the story, I'm going to change the pace.

There are a lot of plot points and timing issues to remember (I still don't have an outline), so I'm going to move through the rest of the edit as quickly as possible so as to not forget points. Instead of handwriting long passages, I'm going to make more broad suggestions and make the actual changes on the computer. If I have particularly good ideas, I'll write those out, but otherwise I'm going to make this a quick strike sort of affair.
