Second Draft Shenanigans
Added 2023-06-16 12:45:53 +0000 UTCWell, friends, I have had Quite The Week, but I have now put in all the scenes I think I need.
Some of them are a bit rough, and I haven't done anything to tidy up the prose yet, so I feel like the whole draft looks like it's been written by a five year old with a Speak And Spell, but we're getting there.
When I've polished up the second draft a bit, I'll put it up for you! And I'll also be doing my find-a-copy-and-line-editor thing. And my find-a-typesetter thing too.
There'll be a video. It'll be cool.
In the meantime, I thank you for your patience, and the complete lack of content from me that is not related to Rosamund and Caroline, and I hope you're having a lovely day.

2023-06-17 06:52:53 +0000 UTCGive yourself credit where credit is due. It's much better than you are thinking as everyone is their own worst critic. And it is always much better than nothing at all, especially since I, and considering the following, probably a lot of people, love these characters and without this, there'd be so much less I can learn about these characters.
2023-06-16 20:17:30 +0000 UTCoh come on, Jill, be fair to yourself. it's at LEAST as good as an 8 year old with a tablet word processor that has spell check! xD (i mean honestly, it's so much better than that, but how are we going to not tease you a bit, if youi won't not tease yourself? xD )

2023-06-16 17:26:08 +0000 UTCAs for the copy/line editor, I used A Little Red, Inc. and was happy with their services. They also have good information about the writing/editing process, including what you should do/put together before you submit for editing services. Here's their website if you want to check them out: http://alittleredinc.blogspot.com/p/welcome.html Oh! And I am not associated with them, but I and others in the fairy tale author community have used them fairly regularly. I know your story isn't a fairy tale, but it might still be a good option for you.

2023-06-16 16:43:42 +0000 UTCI'm loving every bit of this process. I await the next "chapter" in Caroline & Rosamund adventures.......patiently. ;-)

2023-06-16 14:41:12 +0000 UTCTo bring this full circle, I'm now thinking about a scene aka Superman 3, where Rosamond and Carolyne duel similarly to _Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon_. :-)
