The editing process is taking longer than I anticipated, but I’m not complaining.
My manuscript is emailed back and forth between my desktop and my editor Ellen in New Hampshire. Although I sometimes overrule one of her suggestions, for the most part, her comments to invent a better story are dead on. My characters are gaining depth, the plot line is gaining traction.
We manage to fine-tune several chapters each week. If we stay on track, we’ll finish this part of the self-publishing route by early June. Although my story will be available as an e-book and print-on-demand from Amazon, I will also print a quantity of soft covers, hopefully in time to sell at the Cape Cod Writers Conference in early August.
In the meantime, I’m re-writing the blurb for the inside flap and working with Stephanie at Riverhaven Books in Whitman, MA, to design the cover art.
I have to say…this is fun!
Save a soft bound one for me please. I will pay. You can autograph it also. Then I can tell everyone I personally know the author. Keep it going.

Rella… I’m hoping to have a supply of printed books by the end of July. If the date of the Kenton Reunion this fall coincides with my calendar, I’ll be sure to bring one down with me…THANX for your continuing encouragement!
