Change of Plans

So, May 31 came and went. I got to start on the edits, but then my project was pushed back by more pressing projects. What? You mean mine's not the most urgent? Okay, so I'll wait. Not that I'm complaining, because I really am not complaining. Who would have thought that my novel, I mean--my novel, written by little old me, would be accepted? I always believed in my book. (Okay maybe I had a few doubts.) It's a great story!

Most books take up to a year, sometimes more, to be published. So for me to sign my contract and then have it come out in May? Wow, that's fast. So what if it's pushed back a few weeks, even a few months? That's still faster than most books.

In the meantime, I'm working on other projects, content to keep myself occupied.

On the bright side, Linda sent me the first 137 pages to review and edit. That's over 1/3 of the book. I'm pretty sure the rest will go fast, and before you know, Shabamm! I'll have a book in my hands, with a cover that will rock anything I imagine. (Because I know Amy is that good!).

So, sit back, hang on. There's a book coming out. And I know it will be soon. Thanks for coming along on my journey!

My First Round of Edits

I'm finally on the front line editing of my book. I just heard from Linda yesterday. She's going to start on my book and should have the first edits to me by Tuesday. Should I be nervous? Should I be scared? Should I be worried. Of course, not. Linda will do an amazing job. Still...I'm really nervous, scared and worried. This is my first book after all, and I'm not quite sure what to expect. But I'm up to the task! 

I hope you'll keep following me on my journey. I'm having the time of my life. Oh, and any pointers any of you established writers can give me are more than welcome. 

Come Tuesday I will be a very busy girl!
