I probably just created more work for myself, but I printed out the first 2 parts (15 pages) of my casestory fic and I'm editing them with red pen. but that wasn't the reason I printed them out. I wanted them so that I could easily refer to them while working on parts 3, 4 and 5 and I didn't have to continually open the documents for those parts. once i finish part 3, I'll print that out to help with part 4 and 5...later, rinse, repeat until the story is complete.
Then I'll go through and transfer the corrections from the hard copy to the digital copy and email to my beta (huntress69, will you be able to look over 10-12k words? I don't know when I'll be finish with it, but I hope I'll be done in the next 14-15 days)
working with the hard copy of this fic reminds me of editing essays for school...or how I used to hand write my fics back when I first started writing in 2002. and also reading this out loud has me feeling better about the story as a whole. not quite as much self doubt and comparing going on.
more work
