Tapestry is feeling pretty durn close to complete. Still finishing up the last run-through with Michael. Meanwhile, I've gone back to Silk. Chapter 2 is now written, and I'm completely revising what will now be Chapter 3 (or perhaps possibly Chapter 4, if a new 3 enters the scene. Not sure it's important enough, though, so it's looking like a 'no' at this point.) In fact, given the way my writing has developed, I'm afraid that Silk is possibly up for a pretty big revision. I need to adapt some of the exposition to action and conversation--more of that 'show, not tell' that Laura kept reminding me to do. Well, not really more 'action', just more 'show' than 'tell' about the action. I honestly didn't see how to adapt it when I first wrote it, but I think I better understand now. I think that the most revision needs to occur at the very beginning, though, so here's to hoping it won't take too long to do.
