SO.
Tonight I decided to go through Dead Men In Dark Suits and hack away all of the crap that really needed to go away never to return. Seems like such a simple thing, really, and it was.
It is now eleven chapters and 21,000 words shorter.
I know I say it over and over again, but the story's not bad. The characters only need a bit of tweaking. The writing itself could do with a hard edit, but still. There's a good book under there, I swear, it just needs to be beaten with sticks or something.
