Jul. 29th, 2007 11:28 amJust finished another set of edits. My English-teacher friend gave me a few thoughts on Thursday. Very helpful.
Now I have added enough edits to make the story 128,000 words. (up 6,000 from when I thought it was finished. Makes me doubt myself. What else have I missed? I don't want it to be too long as I've read agents can be put off by the word count if it seems excessive.)
Queries sent: 4
Rejections: 2
Panic attacks: errr
I'm really fed up with my mother right now. Usually I have endless patience because, you know, she's my mom - but this last week she got on my last nerve and did jumping jacks.
