I have many things I’m working on at the moment, which I like. When I’m busy, I’m pretty happy.
As an artist, it’s important for me, to have at least one thing I’m working on that is my own.
After time off of this particular project, I decided to circle back. It happens. There are times I’ve nearly given up on something only to revisit it with fresh eyes, a new perspective and a jump in motivation. My first book is a good example. Many parts of getting it to completion were things I didnt know how to do. Lots of those things were hard and technical and I needed help with. When I came back, I was more ready to do the hard things.
So it is with this book. I worked so hard on making it into a perfect PDF. Its formatted, spelling and punctuation are flawless. The spreads all work and flow. But now I have to pour my efforts into query letters and selling. You know, the hard part.
I once heard an interview with a famous author who said she knew her book was good, she knew it would sell, but she also knew the hardest part would be to get it published. Several rejections later, which everyone knows is typical, she was right.
Page count, word count, hooks and precision. Here we go…
The story without cover or notes is 32 pages. Thats the right amount, but I have much to work on. So much.
