Disturbingly Positive

I'm nearly finished the process I previously termed 'the punch up' and with the exception of a few changes in scenery descriptions and a complete rewrite of the start of the book I'm finding surprisingly few things that I'm not happy with.

This in itself is scary.

Aren't I supposed to be looking at what I did six months ago and thinking 'God that was awful, wtf was I doing? Damned amateur.'

But I'm not, I'm getting involved in my own storytelling, laughing at my own jokes and having cool little scifi moments when I come across a possible future easter egg throw away line I'd forgotten I put in there.

It's been easy, too easy.

I'm waiting for the other penny to drop. So far no-one I've showed anything to has done much aside from praise it.

If one of my beta readers shreds it in this round, I'm actually going to be relieved I think.
