Phew! Revisions ARE DONE!! I like my novel, and I think it’s pretty good, but honestly, I really don’t want to read it again- ever. Of course there’s always an exception, as in revision requests from an agent, but I will not be taking it upon myself to go through it- no way, Jose. This puppy has sucked up enough of my time. I am ready to move on. I want to pour all my creative juices into something new.
No, I am not throwing in the towel; I will continue to query. I plan on spending a couple of days each month sending out queries, until I (a) get an offer of rep, or (b) have queried every agent who accepts women’s fiction (well, every legitimate agent). The rest of the time will be spent writing. YES, WRITING!! Can you imagine? A writer wanting to write? Now that’s a concept ;o)
I have come up something totally new and unexpected for my next project. November’s Rain is on hold (I liked the idea behind it, but I just can’t get excited about it to continue it right now). Instead, I am going to step into the world of young adult paranormal. I know, I know- me and everyone else, right? If you’ve been following my blog, you might even remember me making a comment about how I would never write young adult, because just the idea of writing about high school made me nauseous. Well, it still does, which is why the setting is summertime :o) I’ve already mapped out the plot for it, and I can’t wait to start writing!! I just have to figure some things out first, and one of those things is a very BIG thing- first person vs. third person. The Fine Line was written in first person, which is my comfort zone, so I’m debating whether to stick with first person . . . or not. Decisions, decisions!!
