I have a list of errors to sort out, often words that are incorrect or just not viable. But there are also much bigger elements: I haven't done enough research on herbal lore and really need to sit down and work that out properly rather than occasional desperate dips into Professor Google's cache.
A much funnier error is that I've got my castle layout wrong - I actually sat down and drew the damn thing and then forgot all about it! There's an entire tower missing!
But far more important is that the second main character is not developed enough. He doesn't leap off the page and it's utterly vital that he does, otherwise nothing the heroine does will make sense. I've had this problem before with Very Important Characters - I once wrote an entire novel where I couldn't get inside the main character's head, mostly because he was too close to me. But once I did get his "voice" he turned into the best character I've ever developed. So I've got some work to do and I need to get it done before that Big Reveal.
Oh, but what fun it will be! I LOVE editing! I love taking the work I've already written and making it BETTER! This is when my writing starts to shine ...
But need a bit of a break from it so that I when I start that edit, I'll be panting to get going.
Wonder what I should do in the meantime ...
