Super Quick Update

I'm writing this right before I start recording a new project. Planes are taking off at the airport down the street, and I've got to conclude this recording session before lawnmowers fire up too. The new project is probably the biggest news. It's the longest thing I've ever read to people I don’t know, at about novella length. My voice is up to it, though.

Editing the novel again, as well. I'm fixing the little issues which would distract me when I get into the improvement phase (This character disappears halfway through chapter five and doesn't reappear until ten. Gravity does not work that way. Etc.) Do novels have blooper reels? I could make one for this. Gradually zoomed-in highlighted passages of ridiculousness from the first draft, accompanied by Yakety Sax.
