I’m comfortably ahead of my target numbers, I’ve been steadily revising this thing since the beginning of the year, and I need to write a decent amount of bridging material. So I am giving myself permission to take the day off from preparing the next chapter. I need to decide what’s happening in this chapter anyway, and why it’s important enough to share with the reader. I want this book to not ramble like the first manuscript did. Or at least not ramble as much.
