After a nice little run where the writing came easy, I'm back to slowly plodding along again. I have to say, though, I don't feel as frustrated as I did the last time the writing was this slow. Last week, I finished the third draft of Part II and, after reading it, I've now gone back to rework it some more. For the most part, I'm really happy with the work I did and I think when I get to those sections the writing will be easier, but there's a few parts that are just kind of clunky and it's those parts that I'm working on now. I feel like most of the stump is out of the ground but there are a few stubborn roots that refuse to budge, or at least need some more coaxing before they'll finally give and I can pull the whole thing out. In a way, I guess, it's kind of fun, like working on a puzzle or a tangled knot that I'm really close to unravelling. Still, I'll be glad when I'm done with those parts. Of course, then I'll have to start again on Parts III and IV.
