45,000 words to cut. Score card. 22,000 done, 23,000 more to go.
Question: "Can I cut 1000 words before breakfast?"
Answer: "Done!"
Of course, it is not quite that arbitrary or easy, but once the knife has been sharpened it starts to get easier.
"There, you were a good sentence, still are, but you don't really belong here."
Ruthlessly I draw the delete line through the words of that sentence and it is gone.
Then : Breakfast!
More to come soon... Or go...
