Well, let's see. I cut The Rake from 94K to 82K and I'm back to 89K. Most of the gutting is done. Some reordering of chapters. Everything was fine (I think) up to chapter 8 and then it sucked, so I just rewrote the guts of that, which turned out OK (I think) which change also added some pretty good complexity. Also, I added some stuff about PE trying to write a novel (to replace the other writing stuff in the counterfeiting version) and actually, I think it works great. The change (i.e., no counterfeiting) has introduced some instability in the interactions between GML and PE, so I had to do some reworking of that. I think it works. Who knows?
