The interesting thing I'm discovering about revision, is that you don't need the spark of inspiration to get it done.  Revision doesn't have the verve of original writing, but there is a satisfaction of just doing it.  I find that easier to muster.  The down side is that it isn't as much fun in discovery.

I don't know about others processes, but I've gone over my printed out copy, and made notes either in the margins, I love the word marginalia, and the concept, or for longer bits, I used post it notes that stick up above the top of the page.  It looks like feathers about to take flight.  As I edit back into yWriter, I check off the corrections on the page with a red pencil.  Then I save each revised chapter into the new Word file.  It's easier to find stuff in Word than in yWriter, but it's easier to revise in yWriter.  This way I have complete copies in Word of each draft.

I wish I could sync yWriter between my laptop and my PC office computer,where the story lives, using something like Dropbox, but that doesn't happen easily  from what I've found online, so I'm doing most of the work on my PC. I would be more productive if I could sync.

The first four or five chapters are all pretty well edited, those many years, so it is going fairly quickly.  I have noticed several changes I need to make with characterization, and consequences of their actions.  In my mind's eye, it is all there, but in the words, not as much.

I'm hoping to get this all done before April, because Napo again, probably (yearly disclaimer) and then I have that time to let it sit and stew some more, before I get onto another draft.

Wow, it looks like I'm organized or something...

Just noticed this is my 600th post here.
