Game Plan

Excellent progress. I've gone through the three critique letters and the three marked copies of the manuscript to pull together revision notes on my master copy.

Here's what I have to do for this round:

a handful of clarifications, in particular one related to motivation ("call to adventure");

move up some of the fantasy worlds' exposition (a challenge with two competing worlds);

insert two documents (love this as a device--one letter and one newspaper article);

expand and then move a scene so co-protagonists can meet earlier;

write four new scenes.

That should keep me busy for a while.
