So last week, I handed over my manuscript to my editor and asked her to tear it apart and tell me what I did wrong. It's never easy receiving criticism, but this was about as painless as it comes. My editor is so wonderful. She has taken an experience that could potentially be so frightening and made it a breeze. I cannot say it enough. If you need editing and/or critique services, check out Taryn Albright. You won't regret it.
This is my second Reader Report from Taryn. The last report prompted some major changes and a lot of work. What did she have to say this time? Well, I'm on the right track. There are a few things that still need work, but the good news is the major changes I made the last go round worked well. Basically there are things here and there that need to be improved and I need to work on my use of commas and periods, and dialog tags. (Confession: I suck at grammar.) So at least one more pass is needed, but I'll have it done by February.
I can't get into what's ahead, because I haven't fully formulated a plan. When I know what my next steps are going to be, I'll write another blog...but for now I'm going to bed.
