A lot of people have been asking when Clara and Ezra will be released.
As I mentioned earlier this month I finished up with my read through of the manuscript. Now I have to apply those edits.
The best and easiest way for me to do this is to retype everything (again) and then add the edits in as I go along. This way when I need to delete a scene or add in something new it doesn’t feel forced or unnatural.
And so far this tactic has helped me add more words to my overall word count.
With this draft I want to hit 90k and then send it off to my beta readers. Then once they read it I’ll apply any last edits and get this bad boy ready for publication.
With a 3rd draft is allows me to really ensure this book is exactly what my readers deserve. I’m taking the extra time to make sure no stones have been unturned. I want to make sure I’m bringing the absolute best version of this book to you, my readers.
There’s still a lot to do, but I’m getting so much closer to where I need to be. And no, I’m not going to be able to release my book this month or next like I had hoped, but I tend to release a lot of books in July anyways, so I’m excited to have a different time of the year where I’m releasing a book.
This book will definitely be done before the end of the year, of that much I can guarantee.
Thank you again for your ongoing patience and support! The wait is almost over!
