Good Thursday morning to you all! This post isn’t really a post. It’s really just an explanation of why I am not posting this week…Because I’m editing!
Or rather, I’m carefully following 98.9% of the advice offered by a much more talented editor than me, one who doesn’t fling commas around willy-nilly, use inappropriate ellipses, and who knows her way around an em dash. I cringe to think what she would do with that last sentence.
So, what am I editing? Thank you for asking. I’m editing a book. To be precise, I’m editing my book, a (an? you can see why I need help) historical novel that will be published in early September, when it will immediately climb to the bestseller lists because of its prodigious use of em dashes. Also mummies. Did I mention it has mummies? And murder. Maybe a little bit of mayhem, too. And even a hint of romance.
Have a great week!

All the best!
Thank you!
How exciting, Sarah! I bet you cannot wait for September to turn up along with the butterflies 🙂 x
The butterflies are definitely already here, but I am very excited.
🙂
Can’t wait!
What!! How exciting for you! Can’t wait! 🙂 Best of luck with the editing process
Thank you!

How do I get a copy/link to your book so I can give that promised review/endorsement?

Hi Sam,
The book is not out yet, not until the first part of September. If you’d like to give an author blurb, just e-mail it to me as you’d like it to appear and I will include it with the book. If you’d rather just review, that’s ok, too, but that option won’t be available until the book is released. Thanks!
Oh, just reread your comment. I e-mailed the pdf to you at the beginning of June. Should I send it again?
Exciting. Good luck.
Thank you!
