What I’m Doing Tonight


Editor’s line edits are done. There are a few all-over book edits from the editorial letter that I need to squeeze into the narrative now, and the best way to do that is to read what I’ve got currently and adjust accordingly. This is my last big chance to get everything into the book that needs to be in the book… and pull out all the extraneous bits.

Good times ahead.

And yes, that’s my bug-tracking spreadsheet on top there. As you can see, I plan on filling out most of it during the read through.

The last two massive edits I did on this book prior to acceptance (for an editor at another publisher and for my agent, respectively), I added in a bunch of world building crap that I honestly have no memory of (magicians are allergic to gas lamps???).

I need a crash course in God’s War.
