This week, with the Fourth of July being right in the middle, was still fairly productive. I started on chapters 31-33 of Beholder's Eye, and the editing of these shouldn't take too long, for they're shorter. Chapter 31 is 4 pages long, 32 is also 4, and 33 is right now standing at 2 pages.
Chapter 33 is going through a huge revision, because at the end of it, the main character Kolin Raynes finds out some dramatic news regarding a family member and loads up on all of the firearms he can. When I wrote this, I didn't question why he did this--I just thought it was cool, something like a cross between Die Hard and The Matrix. Looking at it now, I question the character's motive. Sure, he wants revenge, but doesn't need 7-8 various firearms in order to do it. I cut that entire scene and lengthening other passages. In the end, it'll probably be close to 4 pages as well.
As of this writing, chapter 31-33 are nearing the end of their editing stage. By the weekend, I should complete them.
