I did it! I managed to finish the revisions of Breaking Bread before the end of the year. I’ve passed it off to a few readers for last minute feedback on the change in the story. I’m sending to my editor today with his promise to have it back to me by the end of February. In the meantime, I will work on the book cover and writing the dreaded blurb. Watch for publication in early March!
Today, I opened the file for “Here Lies a Soldier” and began rereading the story so far. I’ve dusted off my notebook for the novel and begun jotting down ideas for some changes and for what happens next. I can feel the neurons beginning to fire and I’m looking forward to picking up the threads of this story set between modern day and the time of The Great War. Watch for interesting bits of research I find as I read to write.
I also received some very exciting news at the end of the year, but I will save that for tomorrow as it deserves a post of its own!
That’s fantastic, Doc! Hope the publishing part goes well, and I’ll be purchasing a copy as soon as it’s out. J finished the book I got her for xmas, Three Empty Frames, and loved it. Thanks for the stocking stuffer! I haven’t gotten to it yet, but I’m next. 😃
