Hello everyone.
I have written a fantasy novel and have just taken it out of a dark closest after it's six month cool off. I am polishing it now and its taking me around three days per chapter (it's 95000 words and shrinking.)
I work from 10 till 5.30 on my book everyday (While my toddler twins barrel around me and destroy the house.) and then i have a break by reading other peoples writing on here.
I hope to help people in the Syw section with critiques. I posted my first critique but i couldn't find the colored text and I'm not sure how people manage to post those yellow squares of critiqued text. I just used the quote option and highlighted the text and worked my critique over the original, but it is hard to read.
So if anyone can point me to a post about quote options i would be very grateful.
I am floored by how difficult editing and polishing are and i am stunned at how i could have ever thought my book was any good 6 months ago!
If there are any fellow AWs in France i hope you drop me a line and maybe i can critique something for you! In french if u need!
Anyway i look forward to getting to know you all.
Jay
