Step 1 - Start with excitement.
Step 2 - Realize you have a lot of work to do.
Step 3 - Internally cry a bit.
Step 4 - Decide you can wait and put it aside for months.
Step 5 - Come back and reread.
Step 6 - Realize you would literally rather rewrite it from scratch than try to massage what you have into the necessary shape, because at least then it'll all be in the right order.
Step 7 - Know that means it's going to grow a quarter longer.
Step 8 - Feel your soul shrivel up.
