This book has been written for some time and the manuscript was sitting in a box with half a dozen others gathering dust and not quite as complete, so this month it is going to get the makeover, a first draft for the editor.
And so it begins...
...
Just crossed the finish line
...
That's it for another edition.
67,941 words written, but if I sat down now to contemplate what I've just done, the post-it notes would get in the way.
Oh, there was so much revision to do!
But, at least I managed to revise a complete novel in a month which is what I try to do each year, and then worry about editing and refining the next work in progress for the next eleven.
Not looking forward to that job, no sir.
Of course, the ending is nothing like what I envisioned the first time around, but when does it ever once the characters take over.
Until November for the next new novel, or something momentous, I bid you all a good night.
