Holy Request for a Full, Batman!

So, on Saturday, I got word that a final round judge for a contest I entered with the manuscript I'd put in mothballs has requested a full. The requestor is an agent with a large, respectable agency. To say I feel I have to take advantage of this opportunity is an understatement. But it means doing a complete revision of the manuscript between now and March or April. Eek!

One way or the other, I have to finish my historical first. Today is a holiday from work, so I'm going to do my best to push through to the end. The word meter currently looks like this:

Carnally Yours


Wish me luck!

Update:

Didn't quite make it to the end, drat it. But so, so close!

Carnally Yours


Unfortunately, I have a feeling I'm going to wind up tossing about 500 of those words, as I'm not happy with them.
