Well, I've finally done it! I've finally finished proofreading all 102 of my books. Even though I only played my video game for a precious, few minutes and did not entirely finish my copy of The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner, I still managed to muddle through all 18 that I had left to proofread prior to my vacation. (Of course, I still have four more additional ones to complete, but that should be a cakewalk. I was pleasantly surprised that I got through my biography of Duran Duran so quickly.) Now I can read books which don't require me to be in proofreading mode.
Well, now that the first part is completed, here comes the real bitch of the whole project. Now, I have to go back and type in all my corrections. This would not be much of a problem if I didn't have to do this part on computer. My home computer does not cooperate with the files as well as the one at work. And while I hate spending time afterhours at my library, I may just have to stay over for a few nights, during my leusire time, and finish these books. I still haven't decided whether or not I am going to wait a while before I do this, but it has to be done at some point if I want people to buy my books and give me money so I can get the hell out of my job! Anyway, just wanted to update you and let you know that I am finially finished with the first part after two, long months!
Now, I will try and post updates to the second part of my project as well, but just to forwarn you, I might not exactly be in a jovial mood because, quite frankly, it is going to be a pain in the ass. But this will also mean that my books will not contain errors, and they are more readable to people who wish to buy them. Maybe people at work will finally recognize my writing abilities, thus enabling me to get more than my big toe out into the literary world.
