Yup. The first round of edits are done, finished, over. Did I mention done?

Hopefully the changing points of view will stay at the end. I think it needs it. I’ll let the beast brew over night (am I mixing my metaphors, I don’t care BWHAHAHA) and then have a final check tomorrow to make certain I haven’t missed anything.

Then I can get back to hacking apart Bone Magician.

Btw… I am supposed to cry along with my H, LOL

…well, sort of.

I’ve been through the whole thing and taken out/changed the easy stuff. And I have to make a public apology to my editor for the amount of ellipses in the story. I had no idea there were so many, LOL

I have about 20 points that I’ve got to think about. I could have this finished by tomorrow. YAY.

I also sent of the art cover form and blurb for Nimue’s Price. I have a difficult time thinking what I want for a cover. I see the story in my head as more of a set of moving images rolling through my head like a film. Picking out one image is hard. Nothing jumps out. Hopefully they can use some of the suggestions. And I’m not even discussing the nightmare that was the blurb. All I am going to say is it took me over a fortnight to write less than 150 words. Argh!

Back to the Editing Cave

I was doing okay on my edits, then I had to go and get Frodo from school. I suppose it gave my wrist a rest. I have a laptop and no separate mouse, so mu hands starts to cramp after a while, LOL

And now, after having tea with the Hobbits I can’t keep my eyes open.

Hopefully, I’ll have these edits done by the weekend. My blurb and art cover form are still waiting for Nimue’s Price. I know the style I want, but I can’t decide on a scene. And the blurb for this one is killing me, LOL

I have a tonne of work to do today before I have to run out and pick Frodo up from school at 3 o’clock.

Just waiting on Grandma Gandalf to look after Samwise for the afternoon. *drumming fingers* LOL

All right… I didn’t make the final cut.

But I did get an offer to revise and resub! YAY!

It’s going to have to be a few months off as I have way too much to do at the minute, LOL. They’re okay with that, so that’s fine. Double YAY!

I didn’t make the cut on the Amber Quill contest… but then I never really expected too.

I think my writing voice is intense and sexy, LOL, not erotic. But The Third Proposal is a good little story. I’m sure it’ll find a home soon *grin*

And yesterday I got the edits for Buying Mackenzie’s Baby. YAY. It’s a good time as I’m hacking through The Bone Magician’s Daughter. Editing The Billionaire’s Seduction was an eye-opener in how I write. I think Mackenzie, from the quick scan through the comments that I did yesterday, is highlighting the same problems again.

This is cool. I now know where I’m going wrong.
And can apply that to future work.

Isn’t it so very very nice, LOL

My cover is up on the Samhain Coming Soon page. *grin*

Isn’t it so very nice???

And thanks to everyone who wished me well yesterday. I go so over excited I had a headache from 4 o’clock until the wee hours of this morning, LOL

I did manage to go over a few pages of The Bone Magician’s Daughter. I think the problem I was having was reading the first chapter. I knew that so intimately that it was difficult to read with any depth or patience. But I started to enjoy Chapter 2 and I’m somewhere in Chapter 5 now. Fen, my h, is in a very precarious predicament, LOL

Anyway, off to sort html so my cover can live here too.

Oh, and not thinking about tonight… and the Amber Quill results.
See. Not thought about them. At all…

OMG!!!

Berkley requested the full for Bone Magician!!!

I’m still shaking, LOL

Just as I lose one cover off the bottom of this page, another pops up to replace it *grin*

I’m just waiting for the all clear on posting it. It’s very nice
