(semi)Final "Taste" edits
🕑 Added 2020-12-21 17:29:57 +0000 UTC\o/ told yall I've been busy! I went through and made some more changes for this pass edits, then passed it through a grammar-checker to be extra certain, and now I've just finished reworking the formatting of the story - and boy, lemme tell ya, it's weird seeing my writing in a standard paragraph format :^) After this I think I'll be doing one more look-over to make sure I haven't missed anything, and then send it back & we'll see what happens from there!
For reference! The original version of the story, which was available on my FA and SF, was 18 chapters and 67k words - or, precisely, 66,847. That didn't seem right so I went and double-checked, and sure enough those are the numbers! This new double-reworked version by comparison is twenty-four chapters and just over 113k. I don't really know where those extra 50k came from. There's more there than I thought - mostly I've been rewriting a bunch of scenes and putting in some smoother transitions and dialogue and such, but there are indeed some entirely new scenes. A cute aquarium date! Class with Zoey! A stern talk with the ex-boyfriend at the park! Text conversations (denoted the way I have them in UU, with different usernames for everyone)! Uh. I think one or two fewer sex scenes? I cut a lot of the detail in the scenes with William to make the times with Harley that much more impactful. Also, the big reveal chapter has been entirely reworked as well: it's now from Harley's point of view and was rewritten from the ground up.
There's a lot different and a lot new! I'll keep y'all updated with where this goes, but I'm told we'll be moving forward around mid-January, which falls about in line with my own timeline.
