I struggled to focus on Tuesday when I started re-editing Reason. Yesterday I tried something new. I didn't turn my computer on and worked at the dining room table downstairs. I can't say it was the most comfortable place to work, but there were no distractions. I didn't even have music playing, I was completely cut off and it worked. I edited over a hundred pages yesterday and it was careful, word by word checking.
I can't believe some of the stuff I found. Mostly it was a distinct lack of punctuation and I expected that. I've learned a lot since publishing it, hence why the re-edit and re-publication. What really surprised me were the double words, words out of order and wrong words. Not many, but more than I expected. It shows you are never ready to publish, all you can do, is the best you can on a given day.
My cold and cough came back yesterday and I skipped Karate, very annoying. I spent the time well though by doing an extra fifteen pages, so at least it wasn't wasted.
Time to get back to it and shut down my computer again.
