Hello everyone! Technically it's Friday in Australia, so it's Big Bumper Check-In Time!
I've spent the last month reviewing feedback I received from a Men-in-Black-style MG manuscript I've been writing (though it's hard to figure out who to listen to, especially when some give directly conflicting opinions ). I've managed to chop it down to 67,000 words, which I know, is still pretty lengthy for a MG book. It's more of a fantasy spy adventure, though, and there's no way I can dip below 60,000 without some serious gutting of my precious plot. It almost (fingers crossed) might be ready for querying!
Toothpaste - are you still working on the second book in Explorers?
Supergirlofnc - how's your new project moving along?
Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays!
