Revision started
Good news! I finally started the revision of The Scribe of Irohila. It is my goal for the coming year to have two of my novels revised and ready for submissions by the end of 2003.Tonight I read chapter one out loud to my twelve year old son (my ideal reader, for this novel) and did massive cuts and edits. It is so much better already. Every time I read through it I find more to change. Aaron made a few suggestions and I agreed with him, and made cuts based on that. I intend to make this read smooth.. so others, should they ever want to read it out loud, will have a good time of it.
As a homeschooling parent, I've read lots of middle grade novels out loud to my children. That's how I got interested in writing them.
