Hello! NOt seen you for a while- How are things going? Have you had comments back on the wip from agenty-agent?

Hi Raine
Lovely to “see” you. I’m good thanks. Yes…. I got feedback on the novel re-write from Sarah. She was very happy overall with the initial draft (structure, pacing etc.), and then sent me edits on the first third, focused on ensuring all the characterisation, motivations, dynamics etc. were properly set up in the opening act. I’ve ju…[Read more]

Yay, that all sounds so exciting, and you are getting closer and closer to going out on sub! Are Sarah’s edits big or not-too-scary? Will keep edity fingers crossed for you.
Me… ha. Sort of an indie pub deal, sort of an agent offer, sort of several agents who said dont sign till you hear from me, and still havent got back. So yeah. Lots of ugh.
-
Oh man, you must be on tenterhooks!!! What does “sort of an agent offer mean”???

Yes, the edits from Sarah are manageable. I had to rewrite the book pretty much from scratch, so I knew there would be plenty editing to do. I don’t mind. It’s nice to have time to transition between signing with an agent and going out on sub.
-
That delay between agent and sub does sound good. I went out about a month after signing with agent, and was reeling a bit!
Agent… It’s a long story. He’s helping with current one, but wants to meet before signing for long term. It’s complicated and I’m still looking elsewhere.

Thanks for the tip, Daeds. Also trying to edit my profile pic…. might need to try on laptop rather than iPad.
Novel is going okay, thanks. Just sent latest round of edits to my (!!!!) agent.
How’s your writing going?? -

I have packed my few belongings and scrambled over here. Looking forward to setting up camp (den?) with you all.

@Daeds – That’s what I’m doing (I think) I click edit but all I get is the username box… nothing else.
One other thing…might’ve already been mentioned? Any way of reducing the banner at the top of the page? Quite disconcerting to only see the dow info and my name in the green box when I go into any new topic. Though that might just be a ‘me’…[Read more]
