Well I think I might be finally done with my agent-recommended edits! It's been a long haul--since October--but after many changes made and pages added, I think the manuscript is ready to be pitched to publishers!!! I've spent the last two and a half days carefully reading over the three hundred pages, trying to catch every last inconsistency and grammatical error. Whew! That's a relief. Now it's in the hands of my agent, and hopefully I'll have some good news before too long. (If I do, it'll likely mean yet another round of edits... It's the way of the publishing world.)
In other news, I'm still watching the Olympics (Apolo tonight!), working my way through several library-requested novels, and trying to decide which book to review for next week's Book Review Club post. Very little of interest.

Congratulations Alyssa.
That is great news.

What a load off of you! Now, let's pray the agent can do their work with YOUR work!
Congratulations on completing your edits. I'll keep my fingers crossed for that publisher.
All the best.
I've got an award for you at my blog.
