Writerly Things…1/29/17

Traci Kenworth

I finished the third draft the day before my birthday. I still have much to do with it, so it’s not going to ready for quite a while. There’s still some scenes that need changed, some characters I had to change the names of to be fixed throughout, and lots of polishing. And, of course, there’s still the matter of beta readers. I have a great group of ladies that help me out in that direction.

Right now, I’m going to set it aside for a few weeks. I want to be able to look at it with fresh eyes when I go back to it. So, I’ll be going through a book I bought called Revise and Submit by Janice Hardy for her input on how best to bring my manuscript up to quality standards. I don’t want to push this book out before it’s ready to look it’s best.

In the meantime, I’m looking into submitting to a contest. I’m always going to spend time on my second WIP, LO. It’s a historical romance. The one I’ve just finished is a YA Fantasy with some scary to it. Take care and God bless!
