Time to catch you up! In between taking care of "Health Stuff" I've been working on the edits for my Romance Novel. I've gone through the entire novel a few times. Yet, I've been stuck back on page uno! I loved my opening paragraph when I originally wrote the story. But as time has gone on I've disliked it more and more. I have REVAMPED page one ..., AGAIN! I read an article in Writer's Digest magazine (love, love, love - Subscribe if you haven't already.) The article talked about cutting your first 3 paragraphs or more and you'll probably have a better "Opening" for any novel. That was not the first time I've read something like that. As I read over and over the first page of my novel, I felt that advice was right on! DONE! I am eomotionally ready to "submit" this story, let it go ... move on to another project. I just wish I felt like the story was ready! I often wonder if any Authors feel as though their work is completely ready when we send it out. I'm working on the required 700 word synopsis and hope to let the story fly soon! I'll let you know!
Let me know how you are doing! Keep Writing and Keep Smiling! : )
