WoManuscript!!!

I actually get things done sometimes, astounding I know! I printed a hard-copy of Home, this year's NaNo novel and for once I'm going to edit the right way. I'm waiting till after the 1st of the year (as I told myself I must in order to stand a chance at being objective) and then it's purdy editing pens and a 130 page manuscript and me, non-stop. I plan to read through once, marking it up, but not making changes, just writing comments as if I "didn't write it". then I'll read again, and work the feedback into the piece. And then once that's done, I'll read it and resist the editor (besides touch ups hehehehe) before sending it for publishing. (my free offer from createspace). I say that sounds fair and it also sounds like a lot of work. it has though indeed got me in the writer's spirit. I totally overhauled my writing space, which I have been planning to do for quite some time. I also gathered up my chunks of hard copy Forever Fighting and tucked them away. Someday I'll edit that novel... and I'm working on my working title from forever and a day ago Here Comes Trouble. None of the novels are related so I'm living in multiple lives and it gets a little nutty, but hey what better way to spend vacation :-p

I'd like to eventually get a draft ready for Here Comes Trouble as well but after the first, it's editing Home and schoolwork :-p I have until June to get it in tip-top shape then I fly overseas for the first half of summer. Upon my return...who knows what head space I'll be in, but certainly at some point a writer's one so...it may get done...before next November when i embark on yet another. finishing things, pshhhht, for the birds. lol. I will get Home done, I swear, after all my grandmother is waiting to read it :-p and I got the manuscript spiral-bound and new editor's pens. eeeeek.

Aw well, the excitement will pass. The trials and tribulations of a girl in a writer's head space ;-)
