I wish I had Scrivener or something but I'm stuck with Word. So how to keep track of revision?Here's my method: When I’m revising I usually have a navigation pane open in Word with the outline chapter list. When I’m done with a chapter I put an X next to it. That way I know how far along I am just by glancing at it.
Lately the Xs have been stopped in their tracks. Snow days, sick days, and a chapter I’ve had to completely rewrite instead of revise are to blame, but I’m panicking a little at having lost momentum. Hope I can get to twenty Xs by my critique meeting next week.
And what's up with the photo of the cat in the cravat? I just found the Austencats website this week. It had me in stitches!! So, of course, I couldn’t resist uploading a picture of my cat as Mr. Darcy … :)
