Evil Editing

Okay, that title makes it sound like I hate edit­ing. Real­ly with the right edi­tor, it does­n’t have to hurt.

I’m done with round one (and a half) of edits for Retreat. I do a lot of pid­dly things that my poor edi­tor Sharis May­er has to cor­rect. It seems I have an unnat­ur­al affec­tion for the semi­colon. Over­all, it’s going well, and we should be fin­ished soon, and then we start on Olivi­a’s Falling Star. Sharis is going to be sick of me before long 🙂

I start­ed a new book, still unti­tled, and the only char­ac­ters with names are the antag­o­nist and the sexy hero. I use “filler” names until I can come up with some­thing, so right now my hero­ine is Jane Doe. It’s pret­ty irri­tat­ing when I read back through a chapter.

Don’t for­get the Labor Day Blog Tour that starts right here on Mon­day Sep­tem­ber 7th 2009. Over a dozen lick­able labor­ers will be on hand for your view­ing plea­sure! I’ll post some more infor­ma­tion clos­er to the date. You can win this grand prize, which will keep you busy for quite a few gov­ern­ment holidays.
