marycatelliWrapping up the tale in the denouement. The easiest thing to revise usually. . . .
The marrying and the burying, as Twain put it, although in this tale, it's the marrying after the disenchanting -- some characters finally have the spells on them broken.
And I'm revising along and realized that I had characters discussing something that was hidden by an enchantment without actually learning it. . . another character could now tell them because the spell had been broken, but it won't spontaneously be known by any other character.
sigh. The things you miss in the first draft.
