In Tribulation
Well guys I’m genuinely conflicted. We’re going to be done with most of the character/storyline/plot improvements and beveling over those rough edges by the end of this weekend, right on schedule. Thanks in large part go to Panesgrey, a Beta Reader and bartender (moderator) over at the Jim Butcher forum for helping out with this essential part of the editing process.
But most unfortunately, the head of the editing team (my brother) really wants to wait another week before release. A fourth member of the editing team, SuperPsycho over at ourforum.com has been doing a stand up job of locating most if not all of those irritating little misplaced commas, grammar nits, run-on sentences and clunkily worded or indecipherable paragraphs with descriptors or combat actions that don’t seem to make sense. Alas he’s not done yet and I’m not sure if a week will be long enough. It might be one to two weeks.
I don’t want to wait much longer, but my brother really wants this thing to be all it can be for you guys the first time you read it.
Can’t say it’ll be the final say on the matter but do you guys think? Any thoughts on if we should bevel off all those rough edges before release or just send it out now.
I’d say that right now its definitely better than the first book when we initially launched it but we’ve come to learn that’s not good enough.
