Who would have thought it?

As planned I am now spending my afternoons reading the novel and making some minor adjustments along the way. Nothing in the line of a major edit but the changes I have made have come as something of a surprise!

Despite going through every line with, what I thought, was a fine tooth comb, there are some glaringly obvious mistakes that I simply couldn't see before because I was reading what I expected to be on the page rather than what was actually there. A fine lesson in perspective and the importance of putting things away and returning with fresh eyes as well as fresh ideas.
