Starting to edit

Ok, I can't hold out any longer. I'm going to start editing. I printed out On the Ropes...all 251 pages, two sided printing though.

The experts say to do a few passes, one for the overall story, grammar, dialogue, etc. So that's what I'll do and then I'll send to a professional editor before sending it to the publisher that's first on my list. 

I want to get my editing done by the end of the year so I can have a professional look at it early in 2018. I want to have it submitted to my first choice publisher by March 2018.

That's my plan!  I'll keep you posted.

Still considering what to do next

Since I'm waiting to edit On the Ropes (and it's killing me to wait), I'm still thinking about what to write next. I had thought I would write about Rocco Moretti and Hannah Hailey next, but I'm considering Leah and Heath's story instead.
​
You'll meet them in On the Ropes too. Leah's known and loved Heath all of her life. He's her older brother's close friend. So I see theirs as a shorter story, more of a novella compared to On the Ropes.

Feeling antsy

It's only been 2 days since I finished the first draft of On the Ropes. I'm feeling antsy. It's recommended that you put the manuscript aside for a week or two before you begin editing. That's what I'm doing.
​
So I'm reading a little and I think I've decided the next story will be the Marine and event planner. We meet Rocco Moretti and Hannah Hailey in On the Ropes and they interact around each other at various points in the story. Both are obviously attracted to each other but they're also hesitant.

Finishing the first draft of my first novel On the Ropes is bittersweet. I teared up a few minutes ago. I'm feeling a myriad of emotions - joy, relief, pride, sadness.
