Editor's note on chapter 7: 'This section drags.'
Chapter 7 is the grandmother's funeral.
'Could the mourning be faster?'
Rewrote. Grandmother buried in two paragraphs.
New note: 'Now add more emotion.'
She's already underground, Margaret.
"Your novel lacks tension."
Added a cat and a full bathtub. Same room.
"That's... not literary tension."
Then you don't know cats.
