Getting Manuscripts Ready For Publication
Now that NaNoWriMo is nearing its final hours, I'm relaxing with a cup of hot chocolate, admiring my winner's certificate, and getting on with all that editing and revision I need to do. I'm working on my 2003 NaNoWriMo novel, which was originally called "A Curious Woman Wants To Know". However that is embarrasingly redundant, so I'm now calling it "Curious Woman". But that's also just a working title. I'm hoping to come up with something different.I wrote that novel hoping it would be for adults, but since two of the main characters are children and two are teens, I'm now thinking that in revision I could slant it toward the YA market. It is about a homeschooling family living in a logging town during the 1990's. If anyone local is reading this, you can be sure that town is named Happy Camp. All the characters, however, are fictional. A few of the events are not. The MC for the book is the family, and the enemy is the world at large, and things that happen to make families unstable.
