I deleted about 1500 words so I wrote more than 1k today. I'm pretty sure a lot of what I have written will need to be condensed or streamlined. There is a lot of new stuff. Scenes that didn't exist in earlier drafts. Trying to condense multiple scenes into one in this draft. Serious fat trimming needs to be done again. *sigh*

I'm trying to feel pleased that I worked a lot today instead of feeling crushed by how little I accomplished. This is only the third draft. I think my expectations are too high for it. I'm very worried that I will lose my agent's interest if this revision isn't good enough. But good enough and ready to be published are not the same thing. I need to ease up. But how?
