Medication = good, but evil

Today’s progress:

Project: Shaede line edits.

Pages edited: 37

Total pages: 92

Goal: 444 pages

Writing:

Slowest editing in the world.  I’m probably missing bits, too, but I want to get this done, dammit.  I don’t want to lose any more time to being sick.

I really want to start working on something else while I’m editing, but the brain’s just not having that.

Real life:

Combination of meds are making me feel like crap.  Didn’t sleep well last night, and I spent a large chunk of today feeling sick to my stomach.  I’m glad I got anything productive done at all.

Total words for 2009: 0

This may be a silly question, but can I ask what a 'line edit' actually is, as opposed to a general draft edit? *blush*

It's going through and checking spelling and grammar etc, rather than the full on rewriting type of editing.

You've done almost a hundred pages in, what, 3 days? At this rate you'll be done in just over a fortnight. I think that's pretty good, sick or not.

The sick will go, but you will remain :D There will be time to do super-awesome after you stop feeling like crap.

Feeling like crap isn't much fun :( *hugs*

Aw, thanks :) It really helps to have someone say that. Oftentimes, I feel like I'm the slowest writer in the world.

:) I have moments where I feel like I'm a revoltingly slow writer as well.

Also, I got the review copy of Graceling today. Thank you for sending it to me.
