Great post, Lynn. Thanks for sharing the process and fingers tightly crossed for Alejandro and Rebecca. Can’t wait to read more.

I’m very late posting here–I’ve been immersed in my full requested from the Instant Seduction comp–and just sent it this morning. Am feeling excited about it, but also rather brain dead, so will probably curl up with my TBR Presents pile rather than catch up with the dreaded housework until my conscience catches up with me.

It’d be lovely to know how Eve and Danni are getting on as well?

Just a quick post for anyone interested in writing competitions. I entered the Valerie Parv contest in Australia and got amazing feedback from the competition judges. They clearly spend a lot of time and effort critiquing the entrants. It is REALLY REALLY worthwhile for anyone looking for feedback on their writing.

If you are interested for next year check out the Romance Writers of Australia website.

Good luck to everyone still writing

Thanks, Kimberly! You’ll be done before you know it. And it’ll be an awesome story.

Hi, Barbara! Glad you found something useful in the post. I don’ t know how you get anything done with boys around! My goodness, you must be great at multi-tasking.

Good luck in your writing!

Yes, that should be “aspiring” writers! Gotta laugh when you’re trying to write with two boys in the house.

Editors are wonderful people–they have the distance the author lacks when it comes to seeing how the book could be better.

Congrats on getting to the end. Can I say how very jealous I am?

Hi, Marian! Thank you for the comments. I hope your book is coming along! Yep, at some point, the lightbulb just pops on, doesn’t it?

Rachael: I hope you’ve finished your read through! I did print and read my story on Friday. And, trying to be Sally, I saw some things I missed. I’m working on it now. I also realized that things I thought I made clear, I didn’t. And things I popped in at a certain point, I had to go back and thread it in so it makes sense. But that’s all part of the fun!

Jane: Thank you! I hope it will hit the shelves. Keeping fingers crossed! And I’m working like heck to make sure I tell this story right. I love the process, the writing and rereading and seeing where I can make it better. Hope your book is coming along too!

Hi Lynn,
So good to hear how your writing is progressing. I would love so much to compare the finished published version with your comp entry- this one definitely will hit the shelves!
Well done on being so close to finishing this draft.
Jane
