Edits! Yay!


I got my edits for Wolf Strap today, along with a lovely email from the editor of the anthology, James, saying mine was one of the easiest stories to say "yes" to, and therefore edits are pretty minimal. Huzzahs! I could get used to this. I was supposed to be going to a production of Hamlet featuring a water tank and a 50ft puppet ghost tonight, but I've struck down by the plague, so will head straight home to edit instead.

I also have to come up with a brief blurb for the story, which I'm really struggling with. All I can think of so far is something along the lines of "werewolf returns home to find cousin murdered. Chaos ensues. Also, a drag queen." Doesn't really seem right to me.

^-^ I can't wait til I'm doing this for a whole novel. Or is that a foolish wish?

Not foolish at all, though some amount of waiting will undoubtedly be required. But YAY!!! for this step on the road.

Just give it a few years and I'll be moaning about the endless edits my next bestseller requires...
