This is a big moment. I just chose a release date for my book. November 15, 2017 for preorder, Nov. 21 for The release. The hardest part of writing my novel was trying not to edit it as I went along. I only allowed myself to edit after the crude first draft was finished. This way I also caught typos and gramatical errors, and it made chapters flow more smoothly. Plus the added benefit that most of the typos are gone before you even start the revising phase.
The First Draft
I have a great looking first draft, and now I get to tear it to shreds (Add a sarcastic Yay! here). Well it's not as bad as I originally thought, but I'm going to need a lot of help to pull it into shape. It might take awhile but I'd rather have it looking good then anything else. I'm also wondering where I need to start editing with some of it....
