SGA Big Bang: the big push is on.

The big push is on this weekend. Through edits and various changes the SGA/Pern fusion has climbed to 70,000 words.

I should be at the point of tweaking commas. Eheh. Nooooo. Lots of writing left to do. I still have scene sketches I've added in many places.

But for the first time I'm happy with where I am. Last night (this means four am) [personal profile] sarka, who helpfully lives on the other side of the world, and I worked out the problems with flow and the big issue with the resolution.

Now it's just a matter of reading the rest of the story, yes, this is the first time I've read my own story straight through, I kid thee not, and writing the remaining fill scenes. Many of which are in my notes.

I'm tied up at the temple all day and have to leave in -- oh! Three minutes -- but I'm bringing the laptop to work during the midday break.

Today I finish the read-through.

Tonight and tomorrow I write.

This week we clean it up. Hello, betas! How's your week looking?

The finished story will probably be about ~75-80k.
