Last week, I said I was going to get my major rewrite of my manuscript done. I worked hard over this last week and one day late, I got it to the editor for recommendations. I've rarely felt that satisfied as when I finished that. Few things are quite as tedious as that kind of revision, switching from first to third person. I know it still needs work. I got further suggestions from another writer, some of which may match what I hear from an editor. But I won't mess with any of it until I have it all sitting in front of me. Then I'll use what works and get it submitted [again] for possible publication. If this next publisher passes, I'm back and forth between independent publishing and a small publisher. I don't mind the idea of going indie, though it would be nice to have the name recognition of a publisher for at least my first one.
Meanwhile, I'm kind of at a loss as to what I should work on next when it comes to writing. I'd love to just write, but I know that manuscript's sequel/spin-off needs work, too. I've just been so single-minded for around two months that I haven't been into anything else for a while. It does feel nice to know I have choices. It's a good place to be.
