Green Dream

I just finished "Green Dream."

And, by "finished," I mean "finished an incredibly rough draft."

I am actually feeling pretty badly about it right now. I feel like I've fallen vastly short of what I was trying to say and I still have so much work to do on it. I need to edit out a lot of dead weight, find new words to make several descriptions much more illuminating and cutting, and try to bring it more into alignment with what I was trying to invoke.

I'm sure the alcohol is exacerbating my feelings in this regard.

Anyway. I wrote 2327 words on it tonight.

The current rough draft is about 13 pages in manuscript, or 8027 words.

I hope to have it out to beta readers by Tuesday night or Wednesday at the latest. If you are not a beta reader and would like to be, comment below. I'll consider you for inclusion.
