Back to Work

Summer vacation is over. I'm back on the job. Being a teacher is fun and rewarding, and you get a lot done. Setting up the classroom, and preparing lesson plans, making the classrooms ready for hundreds of kids, who will be returning next week.

So what did I get done over the summer break? After all, my John Dunn book had already been revised and signed with a new publisher before the summer even began. I did find three reviewers for it at the start of the summer. Haven't received the reviews yet.

I did get through the second draft of Second Chance over the summer, and I have already started the third draft. I did get the edits done to Killer Eyes, and the first proof, too. I'm waiting on the next PDF of Killer Eyes, to be sure those twelve "errors" have been corrected, and then I expect Killer Eyes to be released. Strangely there's been no word since I sent the file back. It's been a somewhat bumpy road for Killer Eyes. Gives me pause to wonder about that.

I also started my latest WIP, which is book three in the Killer  Series. It's not a smooth thing either. I'm not sticking too closely to he outline, which I decided had some problems. I'm not sure how to tie in all the characters I want in the story. I might have to rethink that. And rethink the subplots, too. But at least I did get started. Got the prologue done and the first two chapters.

So now that I'm back in the classroom, I might start another book. Finally, my YA book called Inside the Outhouse. That should be fun.
