Good Idea

No matter how many times you've read and revised your manuscript, it's a good idea to read through it at least one more time before you submit it to a publisher or even an agent. I've noted many times on this blog that the revision process is an endless one. I've even said that I would revise THE VASE again before I submitted it to the latest publisher who requested a full. And I did.

But then I read it again, and sure enough, I found an error, albeit a minor one, and revised a paragraph that, imo, improved the prose 100% for that paragraph, anyway. Enough to make me want to resubmit it. I figured they couldn't have read it yet, so send the better one, (electronically, thank goodness,) and just say to replace the last one with this one.

But now I will lay off of it. From now on, my writing will be limited to the revisions of my third novel, the sequel to KOK, KILLER EYES, and maybe even make more progress on the YA I began recently, INSIDE THE OUTHOUSE.

That's all.
