Progress report

Finished this editing pass! Whoo!

I really do like the way this book winds up—I thought this would be hard to edit because this section hasn’t had a lot of editing done to it, and yes, there was some basic fixing that had to happen, but it just flows very nicely.

There’s some things in earlier chapters I want to go back and fix—kind of a timeline issue—but overall I feel like the book is really coming along. Of course, it’s kind of a busy time, so not a bad time to take a little break before I go at it again.

One of the non-book things that has been going on has been clearing out the belongings of a family hoarder, and among those are letters from (and some to) my grandfather during World War II. They’re actually pretty interesting—we donated the originals to the National World War II Museum, but I did keep scans, so I’m thinking of chunking out a quick e-book of letters.
