Yeah, I know, I just did an update a couple of days ago.

This is going to be a quick one:

Yesterday, I began the process of transferring my pen & ink revisions from the printed page to the Word file and in that first day I made it through 32 pages of material.  The full printed work comes to 233 pages as printed (full 8 1/2 x 11 pages, single spaced font sized 10).

If I were to keep up that incredible (and it is incredible!) pace, I could theoretically be done with the entire Word file/draft in a matter of 6-7 more days.

Of course, that won’t quite happen.  As I said before, I do have people doing some work on my house and these early pages of the book are pretty close to being “done”… there are some pages toward the middle and end of the book that will require more scrutiny.

More scrutiny = more work = more time spend on them.

Still, it’s not entirely inconceivable that within the next two weeks, perhaps a little more, I’ll be done with the 7th draft completely and be on my way to draft #8 and this represents a hell of a speedup versus the months it would take me to do earlier drafts.

The bottom line is that this book is getting very near being done, which is what I said in my last update.

Now, let’s get back to it! 😉
