Well, apart from exam revision I'm not doing any right now, but as of the 15th I am free and shall be revising or writing or somethinging my novel. I know that there is are huge chunks missing, but I don't know where. I'm quite excited for some reason, it's like nanowrimo without the cheering fans and lack of sleep...well, maybe not the lack of sleep. I considered the two months thing, but since I still have writing to do (somewhere, hopefully find out where) I decided against it. I'll save the two months for some time when I have the delusion that my that things make sense.
Anyone else? Revising? Editing? Finishing? Polishing? Burning? Printing off to use as wrapping paper? Waiting until two months is up like normal people?

Better to follow perfection day and year; better to learn from it quietly than to spring the trap or the fire a shot that frightens it away.

Currently? Not working on it and guilting myself. Obviously not enough to get my arse in gear, though! *laughs* I have at least another 50k to write before its done, so I'd like to take a couple months off before editing... but alas. Must finish writing first.
I really wish I felt more motivated, though. I'm deeply in love with my characters and my story, but I'm having challenges pushing myself back into their world to finish the tale.

Currently 10K into something else; no real plans to revise either until I give them a more thorough re-read in a few months time.

Heh, silly me. I didn't really start on the 15th. Well I sort of did. It took me until the 21st to sort myself out and realise that my novel wasn't really going to eat my soul if I read it
So I'm reading eight pages a day, and making notes about all those things I forgot to do. I'm doing a shallow clean up,grammar and spelling and passive stuff. Once I'm done that I'm going to pretend I didn't write it in a month and start writing all those missing pieces.
Revision is so much fun. :)
