A Fat Manuscript

I am finally; officially, on the second draft of my story. It’s a great joy to have a finished manuscript that I can read from beginning to end, but, inevitably, I’m focusing on the next stage.

It’s time to settle in to work on the second draft. I need to identify every thread, every theme, and make sure I’ve developed them fully right through the story. It’s methodical work, but I need inspiration, too, and care not to delete anything that’s particularly good.

So, to work.
