Numbers. Up one. I feel more confident with my reworked query letter.
A friend of mine recently read through the book I am querying and gave me notes. I will be turning the notes into an improved book over the coming week. That means that my book is going from draft 3.55 to draft 4.
As I try to find the way I edit, I think I have liked the way I have done this book. Draft One is just writing the book. Draft Two is just a read through. I go through, fix the grammar, and write down what I think about the book. Draft Three is fixing the errors I noticed. Then it goes to friends I can bully into reading it. Draft Four will be their notes.
So that’s it for the Quest this year. I learned a lot, got many rejections, and got started on a quest. I was very nervous to start blogging and querying, but got into it over the year.
Thank you for reading,
Michael
