The last thing you need is to try to start writing another project; especially if it's one you've already finished :p
LOL! Yes, this is what I've been telling myself. Or, more pertinent, I've been telling myself "self, this is not an alternate-universe first chapter of the book. It is the first chapter of a book that exists in this universe."
... but then I think... I could just take out this one sentence, and this stupid word, and maybe just add one thing right here, and it wouldn't really change very much, and no one would notice...
Rob Sawyer, even for his first novel, tracked all changes and kept an up-to-date electronic copy of all changes made at any stage prior to publication. So, line-edits, copy-edits he agreed with, etc.
Which is proof that Rob Sawyer is much, much Smarter Than Me...
