See this picture? This is how I felt last week! With an entire book to edit, I was literally losing my grip on reality! Well, it looks like I will be getting my edits for THE WHITE ASSASSIN done on time--turning them into my editor tomorrow! I want to thank everyone who cheered me on last week! It's so nice to have such support. When I wrote NIGHTSHADE CITY, I was completely alone, no writer friends or support networks to speak of and now I have gobs of good writer buddies telling me I CAN do it--not just myself. So, thanks. You are all the best. :)
Wha? Nightshade City is a crystal kite finalist? Woot! woot! that is so amazingly wonderfully fantastic! And congrats on the new work. Step by step, right?
You guys are full of awesomeness and buttery goodness! I finally finished yesterday! Yikes, talk about getting down to the wire! One day late, I'd be...well...let's just say, not good! :)
I'm glad that the edits came around and worked with you to get submitted on time. Those crazy voices are sometimes good to have but can also overload you. :)
So glad you dmade it! We're all super-excited to read it :) :)
