Ok, then can you forward me exactly the copy I should be doing my edits to?  I see multiple copies of things, including yours.  If I can get that all consolidated into what I am actually supposed to be editing off of, I can start.

Your edits need to be in parallel to mine, essentially, since Barrett has to figure out how to integrate and WHAT to integrate (he may not take all my edits, e.g.)—

 

So don’t wait for me, or for Barrett to revise; instead, refer to mine in particular for oppy’s to provide slightly more PERSONAL detail and / or to fill out the scene as you see it.  In chapter one, some snippet of your domestic life, your girlfriend’s daughter, how you pay the bills (or don’t).  In chapter two:  the guy at Tilt who approaches you and takes a cut—what was  his first name?  The buddy who was your “second” in that operation—what was HIS first name, and why did you trust him, or like him?  The occasional add’l detail about your mother, or some ritual you may have had between you and your sister, some responsibility you had in tending to her—this stuff is SO thinly sketched that a few add’l details will add a lot of depth.  This is minor shit, maybe, but it adds important texture.

 

I’m frankly not concerned at this stage about the Anonymous stuff—what I want is to give this story, and you, something closer to three dimensions.

 

Barrett, how does this sound to you?

Bastards.

 

Dan, are you done with Chapter 1 and 2 so I can start doing my round of edits on whatever you give me?

The FBI came back to my mom's house with another search warrant yesterday and took my phone, my laptop, her laptop. I'll buy another laptop later today.

Guys, I only got through half of Ch 2 today, but here it is.  Will try to finish tonight.

 

How’d everything go today, on the other fronts?  If you wanna talk, call on my cell.
