Today I thought I’d send you to my other blog, Secondhand Shoes. It is a finished work being prepared for publication. In October, it was accepted to be reviewed by Wiley-Merrick. To date, I’ve heard nothing but its not going to stop me from publishing it myself.
Right now I’ve been filling in the plot holes and time lapses. Something you don’t see until after you’ve written the entire manuscript. Slowly but surely, I’ve been passing it through my live critique group and my beta reader. Once that’s done, it will be sent to my editor who’s already edited the first twenty-five chapters.
It’s been a long process writing it around a forty hour work week. But, this is my passion. Writing stories. And, I’ve got more.
Anyway, you can go to: http://www.secondhandshoesnovel.blogspot.com/
Leave a comment and let me know what you think.
That’s all for now folks!
Happy blogging, reading, and writing!
Shelly

ReplyDeleteSharing this post to all I come across with word verification-***** I want to read and visit as many people participating in the A-Z challenge but there are over 1000 participants. Awesome yes, possible for me to visit every person, every day...no. Do the world a huge favor and take off your word verification. We are not robots and blogger catches all spam. I have taken off mine awhile ago and have not had any problems. If you don't know how to do that...follow thislink to learn how. Thanks! *****
