Hyah Mule! ::CRACK::
Okay, I have no idea how that’s supposed to be spelled, but you know what I mean.
I opened up His Chosen Bride and started going through the revisions. The first one was an easy fix–just needed a bit of dialogue. There was one scene she wanted me to change because she didn’t see the point of making the villain sympathetic. LOL. Guess that’s true since the hero kills him later anyway.
Most of it seems to be clarifications and deletions. I’m still stunned by this. Very very minor stuff.
In any case, I should be able to get these done today, easy. I’m going to take my time, though, and make sure there’s nothing glaring. Although she said “We” when she mentioned the folks who had read it, I don’t know if the senior editor has read it. That could still take a while. So, while I’ll be mailing this puppy out very soon, I do realize the reality of the situation. Buying a book takes time.
I don’t think I slept at all last night. At Mass this morning, the priest was talking and I kept visualizing The Call. Bad, bad Michelle. Can’t put the cart before the horse. But oh, I want this SO BADLY. I can taste it. (It’s like Cadbury’s chocolate, in case you’re wondering.)
But one thing really struck me. This past year I have been more focused and I’ve been thinking more optimistically than I ever have before. I truly believe that I’ll sell a book and become a published author. No, I know it in my heart. When I pass by the grocery store book shelves, I really do think to myself–Someday I’ll be there. :crazyjumping:
Can’t wait to see what happens next!! Now I’m off to go tackle those revisions.
