After working most of the day taking down Christmas decorations and cleaning up, we made a trip to Wing City for our favorite boneless chicken wings with Jack Daniels Bourbon sauce. Yum! Tomorrow, I will cook.
I worked a couple hours on the Student Leader chapter by rereading many of their interviews. The draft was ten very polished pages, so there was little to change. However, I want to add a page or two of their reflections on the challenges they face as student leaders and how they deal with them. They told me so many funny stories, but I don't want to include them all in this chapter. My plan is to finish that chapter tomorrow. That means I'll have finished editing two chapters in a week. Hooray! I went through all of the topics and decided to combine a couple shorter segments into chapters. For example, I have pages on costs and equipment that will become part of the logistics chapter. I have five pages on recruiting students and eight pages on meeting with the parents which I will also combine to create a chapter on recruiting and enrolling. Then there are three sections on different aspects of leadership and organization that I will rework. I hope I can get this all done by March 1! So far I have put in 20 hours this week, but tomorrow will be a long day to complete the student leader section. It's almost like a full-time job!
