I remember my first editor putting a big red line through one of my passages that I thought was brilliant. I really wanted it in the manuscript, but I eventually removed it. It wasn't an easy move though! <br /><br />I really need to read Stephen King's book. I've heard great things about it. :)Lize Brittinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00851523224709625399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5217271428057557189.post-64079913742044799062012-10-10T06:51:46.162-07:002012-10-10T06:51:46.162-07:00Congratulations!

I will be buying a copy shortly.<br /><br />I've only ever worked extensively with an editor once and it was alternately frustrating, heartbreaking and enlightening. I cried over some of the stuff that happened, but in the end we worked together to craft a wonderful story. You'd think we writers would all learn from each other's experiences with editors but it seems like we have to figure this out on our own.<br /><br />BTW Stephen King's "On Writing" is great! I read it about once a year. Easily my top writing book ever.Caitlinhttp://fitandfeminist.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5217271428057557189.post-15517923486749909722012-10-10T03:39:54.064-07:002012-10-10T03:39:54.064-07:00Well done Lize.

Doesn't matter though - I know it'll be a good read.Ewenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01093209634556111656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5217271428057557189.post-88154885973254995562012-10-09T18:46:50.342-07:002012-10-09T18:46:50.342-07:00Hi Becki,

It sort of depends on how it does as an ebook and whether or not we can find a publisher willing to take a risk. I will definitely keep you posted, but right now it's only available in the ebook format.

There's something about reading a book in bed that beats slouching over my laptop to read (no Kindle over here, and apparently I'm a Luddite). So if there's a print version coming, I don't mind waiting, just because I know I'm more likely to take my time and take it all in if I'm reading a book. But if not, I still do want to read it, and I'll probably buy the e-version as soon as school calms down a bit and I have some time to breath (probably Thanksgiving break). And seriously, congratulatons, and thanks for putting yourself out there.The Middle Mileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14098356817586309607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5217271428057557189.post-33903367064694233022012-10-09T12:10:02.728-07:002012-10-09T12:10:02.728-07:00You rock, my dear friend.
