I sent THE WARRIOR off to my editor about an hour ago. Final revisions added about a thousand words to the count. I could seriously revise and perfect for the rest of my life but at some point I have to call it because I DON’T WANT TO REVISE AND PERFECT THIS THING FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. lol
It’s perfect timing, too, because Penned Con is in one week and I have a couple hundred of TB’s special dissolving cubes to wrap in brown paper and tie with string. Come see me there and you can help yourself to one. ;)

Amazing! So excited for you. It’s the beginning of the end of an era.
Yes, so true! :)
Congrats! Curious, how long will you and your editor work on the submitted piece before it moves onto the next phase of becoming a book? Thanks for sharing your process with us.
Thanks!! My guess is 1-2 months for editing. It really depends on how many times it goes back and forth, though…
HELL YES. Thanks for all your hard work!
I totally get the editing thing, I’m like that with all of my papers. But I have no doubt The Warrior will exceed my already high expectations.
Wish I could be at Penned Con, but classes give me no freedom to travel.
High expectations yes indeed. That’s why this book has to be killer. Pardon me while I have a nervous breakdown. lol
