So I submitted my work to my editor about two weeks ago. I’m really nervous about her response. I can’t imagine what I’d do if she told me that I’d have to make major changes. It’s my fourth rewrite! I think I’d tell her that I’d want to publish anyway because I think that there’s a good chance the copy will do well.

I’ve gone to a few famous author’s sites and read snippets of their first chapter. I’ve compared my work to theirs and believe that I accurately pinpointed my preferred style of writing.
