Rejoining The World . . . Since it’s still here.

The world didn’t end, but on Thursday afternoon, my round of rewriting/revising did. I finished my book, then went back and restructured the beginning. After that, I went through and corrected some errors.

I sent it off to an agent who has been waiting for over a year . . . and then I noticed a random word at the beginning that had been left over from some changes. Oops. Oh well. I’m human. Hopefully it won’t be held against me, but I can’t believe I didn’t notice it before I sent it off. Oh well. That’s the way it goes and I’m not going to let it eat me up inside.

I’m just happy this part is over.

I got some bookmark making supplies in the mail today so I’ll be working on some bookmarks for some very patient people who have been waiting (If you’re reading this . . . sorry it’s taking so long).

After the bookmarks are finished I’ll work on a query and synopsis. When I need a break from that, I’ll be starting on something new. Hooray!

I’ll also finish up the blog post about revision that I’ve been working on . . . hopefully by Wednesday.

And that’s where things stand with me . . .

Hope all has been going well for you!

Write on!

It’s been FOREVER

I’ve been a bad blogger and have neglected posting. In my defense, I’ve been doing lots of revising. I’m so close to the end I can taste it . . . and it tastes like chocolate. Winking smile

I do intend to make a proper blog post with lots of good writing advice and all that fun stuff sometime in the near future (after I finish my revising . . . which I hope to finish in the next couple of days).

For today, I’m popping in to share the trailer for FOREVER by Maggie Stiefvater.

Forever Trailer

I hope you enjoyed it!

You can buy a copy of the book here: Buy FOREVER.

See you on the other side of revisions.

 

Write on.
