Beta Readers Needed

Putting out a call for Beta readers to provide my current novel feedback. If anyone is interested please PM me. I send it to you end of May 2016. The one stipulation I make is that the feedback must be completed by 24 June 2016.
This novel is the companion novel to Inheritance.

A new project

Here I am editing my novel in progress and from time to time I get glimpses of a story, flashes of scenes in a genre that I have no interest in. But the outline, developing in my mind, is so strong that I will have to write it when I finished the current novel. The historical fiction novel which an outline is finished will have to wait. Isn't it strange how the brain works?

Editing

October was not a good month with my writing and editing of the novel in progress. We visited the grandchildren and in-laws up and down the coast. It was great to catch up with them all and had a good time. So my timetable has slipped and now I estimate the NOP will be completed by end of January as Christmas and Holidays a coming. Frustrating to say the least but we move on.

Editing

Progressing well with the edit phase of my novel in progress. The characters are growing and are beginning to have minds of their own. Feels like I'm being taken over.

Editing

Novel in progress has now entered the third edit phase. I look forward to a quick turn around with only minor changes to dialogue/grammar. The cover is complete and the back cover blurb in draft, all going well.

Editing, Plot

At the end of June, I started the second draft/edit of my novel in progress and so far, I’m happy to say, no drastic plot changes were required. Main changes centre on dialogue, missing words, grammar and conciseness. I hope to finish this phase by end of August, early September. Then a short break and onto the final pass. My goal to publish by December/January still looks achievable but only time will tell.

Editing

I have started the editing process of the novel in progress and buoyed with the knowledge that my cover has been done, by an Australian Graphic Designer from Western Australia, fantastic job too. So my target to have the novel ready for publication by Christmas 2016 looks good.
I also have a friend who has been writing stories of the people he has met and after I read them feel that they should be published, so I've offered to assist him to get them published, watch this space.

Novel-In-Progress

Yay, I have finished the first draft of my novel in progress, I've selected a title and I have viewed the first of the artwork which even now looks fantastic, we just need a little tweaking. I finished with 114,469 words but I take a couple of weeks break from it before I start the hard work of editing and hopefully it be published in December 2015.
