Whew!

It's been while since I posted.  Too many other things have drawn my attention.  Politicians, news laws, downsizing, springtime, warmer weather... And of course, my third book.  It's the final volume of my trilogy.

It took me longer to write book three.  I wasn't sure exactly how to end it.  I had several thoughts and tried to incorporate as many as possible, but ultimately I had to make a decision.  And I did.  And handed off to my volunteer editor.  And I've finished making corrections, adding where needed, and am now giving it a rest before formatting and the last clean-up.  The cover is done and I've got to get a check in the mail for my designer.

But to be honest, I don't feel a sense of accomplishment.  What I really feel is a sense of beginning. Like I've started something that I can build on.   I've already started another book that will be a single volume.  And then there's that other book that just keeps coming and going in my head.  Wandering around in my head is a new trilogy for The Time Savers Club.  And of course, my new short story series on here...  So much writing and imagination, too little time...

Oh, and how could I forget...  I re-edited book one, The Fingerprint of Jack...  What a horribly written book!   Wow!   I can see how much I've changed/grew since that first book.  Now, I wonder if there's an agent out there that would like to take on a self-published book that had some sales but was re-edited with new chapters, better grammar and sentence structures and actually take it to the publishers.
