I sent my MS to beta readers in November and haven't even looked at it since then... I'm itching to get back for one last revision, which is so ironic because it was causing such agony before! Absence, heart, fonder. All that.LAHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15268579298100917721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1817405930079039333.post-87455916636016758562012-01-19T08:04:53.764-08:002012-01-19T08:04:53.764-08:00Yay for sleeping MS!

Don't freak out...you are a good writer.<br /><br />Also, you watch Fringe? You should totally be able to help me with my Sci Fi stuff then... You tricked me into thinking you knew nothing about Sci Fi. Ha. I'm on to you now!<br /><br />Keep twiddling. It's good for you. You'll go back to Guenevere with an open mind and know just where to cut.<br /><br />That's the theory anyway.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17244475646807937843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1817405930079039333.post-18059699633163811442012-01-18T20:14:11.297-08:002012-01-18T20:14:11.297-08:00Aww, good luck!

For The Breakaway, coming out in May, I literally had to let that book sit for about 8 years before I was ready to pick up that thing and see its flaws. It was my first book and I wrote it while I was a teenager, so yeah, it needed a long sit. I was working on other stuff, of course. College, mostly. :)Michelle D.
