I.e. I am excited. I did submit that MS to 2 rounds of critique and a line edit. I am to "expand" the story as they want more but I still got a "fix pacing and some sentence structure problems" too even after all that. So I'm hiring a professional for a fairly nominal charge to help me with that. Fresh eyes on every MS at least 2 if not 4-5 times. That's my mantra.<br />cheers<br />LizLizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15182147051413946727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30931389.post-23529275679019018942011-12-20T08:29:06.905-07:002011-12-20T08:29:06.905-07:00This is an excellent way to describe the editing p...This is an excellent way to describe the editing process.
