Exhaustion

I was up until four a.m. editing my novel, because I promised it to the copy editor late Sunday night.

I will never promise anything late any night ever again.

“Sometime” is my new time of day to submit things. And then I’m going to add a day.

Actually, I’m going to remember how long it takes me to edit for the next book, and not procrastinate like I did this weekend.

I know a lot of writers think I’m crazy to print out and edit the final manuscript on paper, but I think it’s pretty important. You read differently on different media. I’ve been passing by “Andy and his mom got into the cat” several times onscreen. Caught it on paper. Oh, you rascally r & t keys.
