@astronomerritt My early drafts are very concise. That needs to change for the story to make sense for anyone but me. The text grows sort of fractally along it whole length, gaining detail and dialogue and showing instead of telling.

I feel like most writers I know end up cutting words from the draft when they edit. -

I'm a retired software engineer and former librarian, and a long-time but very intermittently active member of the SCA (the hobby for people who collect hobbies).Since retiring and building my house, I have written and self-published 2 fantasy novels: Heir of the Bindings and Broken Oaths & Bindings, volumes 1 and 2 of the Elderkin Chronicles. Volume 3 is currently being written.
I am using Superior Magpie Press (in Superior, Colorado) as my imprint.
