That’s right gang, I’m in edits! I’ve always been a “Can we knock this out in one draft?’ kind of gal and editing is just…. ugh. It’s NECESSARY, but I dislike it intently. Interestingly enough, I’m editing a friend’s work at the same time and I don’t loathe editing her stuff the way I do my own! what’s that all about?
I got some books on editing to help me work through this intense dislike. If I want to be successful as an author, I’ve got to be good at editing. Simple spell check and a once over doesn’t cut it.
So, book 3 is currently at about 96000 words and I imagine I’ll add about 2000 through editing. I have to add at least one scene as the BFF has gotten back to me and said she felt like a part was missing. There may also be dribs and drabs as I go. it DOES end on a bit of a cliffhanger, so as soon as I’m done editing book 3, I’m moving onto book 4! The goal for 2015 is to write TWO books – book 4 in Covencraft and then finish my werewolf gothic romance. You know. That one I started in 2013. lol.
YESSSSS. I’m so excited to read book 3! Good luck with editing. You’re an awesome writer so I’m sure you’ll nail it. & Lots of luck on your goal to finish two books this year (I’m seriously having a bit of a fangirl moment right now thinking about it. lol).
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! It means so much to me that there are people waiting for book 3! I’m working away on it!
Editing can be tough, but it’s one of the most important parts! I have open time if you’d like me to take a look at it. Feel free to email me!
Love the series, it’s great news that there’ll be two books this year.
THANKS! That means a lot to me! 😀
You’re welcome!
