As I jog through the manuscript, searching for mentions of the dhao bo, the newly re-christened frog people native to Northern Arcadia, I keep stopping. Suddenly, I can see where (and how!) everything from brief passages to entire scenes can be buffed and detailed.

Perspective is a marvelous thing.

My initial plan was to hold off on any sweeping changes or rewrites until a professional editor had a chance to weigh in, but now?

I can’t help myself.
