My poetry book is fully updated again. Everything is now in chronological order. There are little blurbs on every poem. There's new stuff.
All told it comes to 96 poems, most of which can be found in the current edition.
But this version will have the date of creation, which is something I've been nagged about for years.
It took about 7 hours in the last two days, but that was months in the making. All told, probably a couple days put into it. There was the going back and finding all the dates. There was the writing those dates down into a coherent format. There was getting them on a list and putting the poems in order according to those dates. There was getting the page numbers changed, the blurbs written, the dates and blurbs put on the pages, fixing minor glitches that came up, on and on and on.
I am hoping to print tomorrow at the earliest, although that's a long process that requires patience. I print ten pages at a time, since each poem is a separate document. Then I punch those pages. Then I move onto the next batch. I have to do about 10 batches, since I have to change the front cover (it looks old and has water damage) and add the title page. 98 pages. And I have to go to Walmart and get the paper.
Can't believe it's done! Going to bed now because I'm exhausted.
Ta,
Bec
