What's Playing on the iPod right now: "Back to Life" - Soul II Soul
What I am reading now: "When the Thrill is Gone" - Walter Mosley
Last year I finally finished my novel, "Moment of Truth". It has taken me over a year to complete but to see the words "The End" typed on the page made it worth it. The story was told and I could begin to work on a new story. Unleash a new cast of characters that live in my head.
But my thoughts and energy soon turned to the task of publishing the book. I have decided to go the self publish route. I want the work out there to see how it fares in the market without going through the traditional publishers. The first step in getting the manuscript edited. After a critique, my editor suggested and I agreed that the story would be better told in third person. This of course requires a total rewrite since the story is told from the first person view of my main character, Adrienne. But I am up for the challenge. I want this book to be the best that I can make it. I can already see how the other characters will add more depth to the story.
Well, let me get back to work. I don't have a year to waste on revisions. Stay tuned for further updates on the path to publishing.
Peace.
