Perverse Progress

I sat down to rewrite the dialogue in that scene today and just felt a big fat wave of "I don't wanna!" 

Then I tried to do some word cutting in Act I. "This sucks! All the obvious wordiness has already been cut. This last 1,000 words is going to be twice hard as the first two thousand put together. I don't wanna!"

So then I opened up the Act II file and edited nearly 1,000 words.

Good progress on something that isn't one of my goals for this week.

But hey. I'll take it.

7,951/15,000 words edited in January
2,195/3,000 words cut from Act I
0/60 minutes spent rewriting dialogue
