And cutting 210,000 words to 130,000 must have been very hard! But the finished product is excellent in my opinion. :) <br /><br />Mary - I love learning more about you and "Searching for Pemberley"<br /><br />Alexa - This was such an enjoyable and Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07081700715706497061noreply@blogger.com
