Continuing Adventure of Bungalow Bill

Nearing the 1/3 mark on the edits. That’s a rough estimate, since some issues involve more work than others, but good progress, nonetheless.

One point in particular I have avoided without shame: a major character revision. Basically, this issue means rewriting 3/4 of a character’s dialog. Deep in my heart, I know the lines would work on a stage — and a screen — but none of The Eight heard his voice quite the same way I did in my head. Therefore, I failed to make a case for the character on the page. A damnable oversight. Even though the glitch is one item on the hitlist, fixing it might take longer than all the others combined. And that is why I dodge the inevitable, for now.

Next time, I’ll have a better feel for the reader.
