Some days, it really is a good thing to have (a) very good beta readers and (b) a tendency to finish way before the dead line.
Which is to say: I just cut around 40,000 words from my big bang fic in favour of totally re-writing the second part.
On the one hand, it probably won't take me another 40,000 words to do so, and I can recycle some of what I already wrote. On the other hand, oh my god, 40,000 words, and most of them are completely useless now.
And I thought it felt bad to cut 4,000 words from something.
