It’s been awhile since I’ve posted here. Here’s what’s up with Because Of The Red Fox.
The book is formatted, and the front cover looks pretty cool (if I do say so myself–and I did!). I’m currently rereading the manuscript aloud to my daughter, and she is giving me some good insights. At the moment I feel like the changes I need to make (and I do need to make them!) may not be ones I can complete in time for my early Novermber launch date.
But that may be just me feeling a bit tired and overwhelmed–I’ve been working hard on many projects for the past few months!
This is yet another challenge of being a writer, whether you’re intending to self-publish or not. At what point do you decide you’re done–you’ve done all you can do? I thought I was close to that point … near my limit. But … some parts of this novel work really well (in my humble opinion!). I feel determined to work over the less well, so that they come close to the feel of those “wow, I really did it!” sections.
And I still feel committed to launching the book soon. Part of me wonders though if I can do so within 2012.
The answer is: let’s see what I can do within the next two weeks.
To be continued!
