Hmm. Got busy and forgot to blog until late. Now I’m full of pumpkin pie.
I just got back the last of four full-novel critiques on MAGE STORM. These wonderful people read the whole thing–inside of a month, too. Previously, I’ve only had novels critiqued piecemeal as part of a chapter exchange that often stretched over several months to complete.
I really appreciate the critiques. There are just somethings that I know these readers could judge much better than if it had been a chapter exchange. Pacing, for one. I’m always suspicious about pacing comments from someone who’s reading a chapter every ten days.
At the same time, four complete, marked-up copies of my manuscript at once is a little daunting. It’s hard to know where to start. Guess I’ll still end up doing the revisions chapter by chapter just to break it into manageable pieces.

You start with mine, silly! 🙂
I enjoyed reading it and I can’t wait to see it in print! With sequels!

Your critique made some excellent points, Robin. It’ll be a big help in getting it ready to send out there to try to get it published.
And there’s the possibility of at least one sequel.
