First draft is complete and the cutting begins. Shockingly, the first draft clocked in at 152 pages! Holy sheeeet. Anyway, I've since cut the fat and am down to 132 pages! Yaaaay! Still got plenty more re-writes to go, of course.
So I was wondering - what's the biggest cutting job you've ever done. How much have you over-shot by? Do you generally clock in on the dot? I must say, I'm terrible at keeping it to 110-120 pages. My structure needs work and I often overwrite. Hey, I'm working on it. Better to be over than under - that's my motto.
