Just goes to show, it's all in how bad you want it. And boy, did I want this book to be over :) I mean, I love it. I love these crazy fairy characters. But my brain is full. I need a rest. It was hard work.
So now I'm in revisions, cutting lazy words and identifying problems to be fixed. It's in reasonable shape, probably only a few days of work once it's trimmed. That's what I love about my outlining process: not much rewriting.
The trimming, on the other hand, is slow going. Hackity hack, slashity slash chop. Word by lousy word. Eh.
Apart from that... well, not a whole lot going on.
A quick shout out for Cleverly Inked's Birthday Phenomenon, a massive load of giveaways and other fun.She has piles of books, swag and fun stuff to give away from dozens of authors including moi. So pop along and check it out.
Well done!
ReplyDeleteMy copy of Shadowfae arrived this morning... I shall be reading it as soon as I have finished my current book. :) I may or may not let you know what I think about it :)
Great news with book # written (except for revisions being under way)!

Ah, so that's why I do massive re-writes and you don't - you plan :) I'm thinking I need to go this way, so next time I catch up with you (probably Aussiecon), I'll have to ask how you go about it.

Just found your books. Read the Shadowfae. Hooked. Page 72 of Shadowglass. I'm enjoying the perspective.
