I apoligize for not posting in a awhile, work has been keeping me in weird hours. Of course that does really affect my writing time, since by the time I get home I really want to sleep. However one of the more extensive goals, I set for myself last month is done with. Which means the revising of Rise(Seasons of death and dragons) can begin. Honestly I feel that will be my main focus for this month, so I can hopefully get a published by November, just in time for the holiday season. Which hopefully will increase the sales, of both print and digital copies.
Best to you in your writing goals.

Good luck with your goals, but consider the WEP this month – a quick scare would be fun!

Before you publish, have you lined up a professional editor to read through and edit your manuscript if you’re self-publishing? This is an essential step. It’s important to make your prose the best it can be, and your novel the best it can be. When you self-publish, it’s like going to a job interview — your book will reflect on you as a writer. An editor can help you make certain your narrative structure is true, your pacing is on track, your characters are developed, and your prose is polished and tight. Readers will thank you, believe me!

I have done a large majority of the editing myself.

While that certainly saves money, this is one thing that’s worth the money. I was really glad I spent the money before I self-published. My editor found things I’d missed, made valuable suggestions, and truly demonstrated she supported my writing and wanted the book to be the best it could be. It’s also really, really good to have a professional set of eyes reading your work! (smile)

I’m still trying to find one though. Just wanted a more polished draft before I do.
