Meredith MacKenzie and the Uruk Empire Take 3

Right now, I'm working on the third draft of my second novel, Meredith MacKenzie and the Uruk Empire. I've finished 8 chapters, which works out to around 26K words, about 20K of which is new material. Pretty much the entire front half of the novel is being rewritten, while the back half will remain pretty much intact, though some of the subplots will get a bit more emphasis than before.

I'm actually enjoying reworking the story, but I'm running up against a problem a lot of part time writers have.

Lack of freaking time.

300

I went to see 300 on Friday.

I'm going to start this by saying that this was, simply put, one of the best movies I've ever seen. On a scale of 1 to 10, it easily, almost effortlessly, scores a 10. This is, simply put, the movie every action film ever made wants to be. More than that, it's one of the most visually stunning movies ever filmed, and on top of that.

Just as an aside.

I wasn't sure (after the first three times), but I think it's now safe to say Katherine likes the new Harry Potter film.
