Well, that's what my editor essentially said. She said KILLER OF KILLERS 2.1 was ready to send to the publisher. But I said no, can you believe it? I said no. I told her to wait until I read through it just one more time. The fine tooth comb thing. You know, to make those last minute improvements that I know need to be made. And then when I send her KILLER OF KILLERS 3.0, then she can send it on to the publisher.
So that's it. I'll get through the first half tonight, and hope to have the second half done by tomorrow. Which is actually today, since it's after midnight and this is technically a Wednesday post. The bottom line is I told her I'll send her the final version (KOK 3.0) by Thursday.
She said I did a fantastic job. And those were her words. You know what? I believe she's right. But truth be told, it was because of what I learned from her. And from Nancy. And don't forget the hard work. Yep, that plays a big part, too. If you don't work hard at something, how do you figure to get good at it. You don't.
So speaking of hard work, it's back to work for me. You can't work hard unless you just plain do it. But you knew that. At least most of you do. It's why you're writers. Isn't it? Yeah.
