jacey'Between Wind and Water' is finished - at least for the time being and for a certain value of 'finished'. I've edited it down to 100k which feels about right. Big thanks to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
brownnicky for a swift kick up the edit and making me see some of the bloat that needed removing. And to everyone else who contributed critiques at earlier stages.
I'm going to take the last 9.1K or so - the final action set pieces - as one of my submissions to Milford this year (starts on 17th September), but apart from that it's ready for Agent Beth.
Now all I have to do is decide on my second sub for Milford - I have a couple of different pieces I can take. i doubt if I'll be able to write a new short in time, which is what I'd been hoping to do. I've got 5.9k words to play with.
Though I do have another children's book idea I'm keen to make a start on.
