This is great JB, thanks for setting up and for all the tweaking. My only things were making the wall the default page, font size on the main wall, and reducing banner size. BUt they’ve all been mentioned above, so I will just send cake instead.

Sorry, P, I didn’t see this and posted on the main wall instead! So, edits back to agent – yay! And eek. 🙂 DId she give you a timeline for getting back (although agents seem marginally allergic to timelines as far as I can tell!)

Oh god, I think this one would kill me. I spend far too much time on hands, bird calls, clouds, breathing, bones, and general farting about in the character’s head. Perhaps all the more reason to do it. BUt erk.

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.
