Update on my writing

There is so much work to do and so little time.  I am in the process of writing my second novel Raven's Song.  Although I am in close to finishing the first draft of the novel but I do not believe I am close to finishing the story.  I love how Raven is turning out; she is constantly surprising me.  fully I can get the story finished in the next couple of weeks so I con turn my attention to editing and proofreading the draft.  I am going to add elements to the story before I send it to the publisher for the first trip to the editors.


Going through the publishing process with Echoes of Savanna taught me a lot.  There are a few things I am going to do different with Raven to improve the final copy.  The first thing I am going to do is make sure the story is where I want it to be before I submit it.  In Savanna's story there were a few things here and there that I liked but I knew didn't quite fit the story.  I knew I needed to change them before I even submitted it.  Another thing I did was I never gave the editing a rest.  As soon as I finished going through the draft again.  This time I am going to submit the copy and not look at it at all until I receive the editor remarks.


So now I need to get back to work.  I hope I get my work done soon.
