I'm currently revising "Starfire," my latest Nephrite/Naru Sailor Moon fanfic.
So far, finished marking the first draft and about halfway through typing in the changes. The basic scene structure and plot were good, so not too many changes there - move a couple things around, delete a few unnecessary scenes and passages, plus I had to spread out some of the story's events because too much was happening all at once. I was able to polish up some of the awkward NaNo writing and excess wordiness. I have hopes that the second revision will do it for this. My goal is to be able to start posting it at The Nephrite and Naru Treasury by the end of March.

Revisions are typed in and the second draft of "Starfire" is printed out, so I'm going to let it rest for a day or two while I figure out how the new underlying "why" of "Urdaisunia" affects everything I already have for that story.

halfway through revising the second draft of "Starfire."
I had an older, half-finished version languishing on my fanfiction site for a long time (like 6 years). I finally took it down last month, but left the story description up in the library listing, and yesterday someone e-mailed me to ask if I was ever going to finish it. It felt good to tell her it's complete, just needs a little cleaning up ;D

yay! I'm on the final draft of "Starfire!" Which means pretty soon I can get back to my dear prig of a university professor and his smartmouthed yet lovable translator!
I'm going to miss my deadline for starting to post "Starfire" by a few days, but hopefully, unless I find anything seriously wrong in this last go-over, I can start this weekend.

Gah, so close, I just want to finish this!! I'm at the stage where I've gotten really tired of the project, but I've got a (self-imposed) deadline and I'm afraid if I set it aside I won't get back to it. Just have to keep pushing forward until I'm done! (Might have been a good idea to take a little time off between revisions, but there's that deadline...)

Yay!!!! finally finished typing in the last round of edits. I'll resist the urge to do one more round of proofreading - that's what this was supposed to be, though I made a few more revisions than I had expected to - and get ready to start posting it.
