I received my editors edits today, and tore through them. A few minor issues, a bunch of little corrections (I can't believe that I had the contraction it's when it should be the possessive its). There was some negotiations on a few things, but in the end she saw reason.
By which I mean I did exactly what she said and she considered that reasonable.
I've still got a ton of edits to make, but the entire book feels so much stronger. It's the difference between an elementary school production and something more high school/college.
Not quite Broadway yet, but the potential is there!
Keep at it, RobRoy. I'm in the same boat (same editor, too), and I couldn't agree more. Race you to the finish line?
ReplyDeleteThanks Matt! Definitely, the race is on!
DeleteI want you both out of the house by Nov 1st, until the next book! And of course I will continue to hound you to the last circle of hell on marketing!
ReplyDeleteWhy do I suddenly feel the need to snap to attention and salute? ;)
DeleteYes ma'am. Rightawayma'am!
