Since having the first five pages of my Sarah’s Gift manuscript critiqued, I’ve taken those comments to heart and have totally re-written the opening.

Now it packs a punch and gets to the “turning point” in fewer pages! Yeah!!! But, I have to keep it off my blog and website because even though I’m the one who wrote it and put it on my “own” page(s), once it hits the Internet, it’s considered published. With all the work I’ve put into it with the goal of getting “my girl” published, I don’t want to prejudice my chances by doing something stoo-pid.

Besides when the good news that I’ve got a contract with a publisher, I will have the news posted at lightning speed! Followed closely by the pop of a champagne cork, naturally.
