Still hammering away
Mar. 24th, 2009 11:11 pmI'm still doing the final line editing. I've now eliminated nearly 10,000 useless, unnecessary words. My project is no longer 95,000 words, but somewhere around 85,000.
My hope is to get the line editing done before I depart to Florida to make wedding preparations later this week. That way, when I return, I can focus on the synopsis and the sending out of queries and other such things.
And then I'll start again on something else. I don't know if it'll be the Tower!Guy sequel or another project, but whatever happens, I have to keep working.
Right now, I'm currently debating entering the Book In A Nutshell Contest being held by the Knight Agency, where you send in three sentences about your project, and the top twenty get feedback, and possible representation. I don't know if it's worth it or not, or if my chances are any better than they would be just sending a regular old query. I'll have to sleep on it.
