Okay, so.....revision #2 almost complete...

Been awhile, so I wanted to jump in here and let you's know that I'm workin' it here in the background. It's a lot, to go through a full length novel several times, and it's amazing how much stuff I see to correct. I'm rewriting a few scenes and changing paragraph structures and breaks, correcting typos, yadda yadda. If I knew what I was doing it might help, but, in spite of my new-ness I think I really do have something here with this book.
Okay, so.....I'm here in the background revising and rewriting....

120,801 words and now the work begins...

Before I head to the beach today I wanted to express my exhausted joy at finishing the 1st draft of my first thriller action adventure novel. It seems a long time since I began this thing and along the way I realized other things that every writer needs to think about.
Rewrites, of course, and a reader group and an editor and cover art. Plus the ebook formatting thing.
Hopefully I will soon be able to announce that I have all, if not most of these critical elements in the bag or at least in the works but for this moment, today, I'm just happy to be able to say I finished the first draft.
So, after working and reworking the ending a few times and a long haul struggle to focus my time and energy on this wonderfully challenging craft I'm taking a couple of days to settle my little brain.
