Early reader feedback for Weavers and Ninja at Law have started trickling in and it’s both extremely promising as well as mega frustrating. The promising part is because both books are getting high marks for readability and the storylines themselves. The frustrating bit is because the feedback is excellent and I want SO BADLY to go start fixing the things that are being pointed out.
But I must stay strong! I must resist this fell compulsion! I must NaNoWriMo!
I must also admit that part of the urge to go edit is because Unseen is coming along so much more slowly than those other two. I haven’t been able to fall in love with the protagonist yet and I’m worried that means others won’t either. The genre is also one that’s new for me to write in, for multiple aspects. It’s post-apocalypse and I’ve never done a story for that. It’s also a buddy adventure and I’ve never done one of those. Lastly, the world isn’t fully developed in my head the way the other two were.
But I shall prevail!
Okay, Jim. Get off the damned blogs and go write.
(sigh)
You can’t be as obsessive as I am with editing. Yesterday I spent over 4 hours editing 500 some-odd words!
If I write even one book, I’ll be editing posthumously no doubt!
Hopefully you find the key to that world! 🙂

Lol. I’ve been wishing there was a comment edit too. Just about right after I hit the submit button every time.
Thanks for the encouragement! 🙂
