Professional Critique

I got a professional critique done of my book, and here is a snippet of it:
'Overall, I enjoyed this manuscript. Elves are always a fascinating subject for your intended market, and they will find this material very entertaining. The readers will love Ava and Jack, and the readers will enjoy watching them as this storyline progresses. You do seem to understand what your readers want and need from a manuscript.
I feel that this storyline is well thought out, well paced, and well written. Your various characters are well rounded, interesting, and they add to the plot and storyline.'

Sorry

I have been neglecting my blog. I have been posting mostly on my facebook page. It is just easier because I go on it all the time.
Well news, there isn't really any, I have just been keeping in contact with my agent, and sending her updates of my book. I have just been adding small extras in there that pop into my mind when I am not expecting it.
I am also still working on the second one, but just a few minutes here and there, it does not really add up to much.
I will post any exciting news as I get it. My brother in law has set up a store front for my t-shirts and bumper stickers, etc, only it is not quite ready when it is I will let you all know.

May

So I am trying to enjoy May, but so far it has miserable. I do kind of love how the weather just does whatever it feels like, my husband thinks that is why it is called mother nature, because women can never make up their mind!!!!

The Craziness of Life

So I just finished moving, and I am now unpacking everything I own. So I am sorry I have not posted for a while, but I am back and ready for more.
I now have t-shirts that my friend made and I will let you know more as we figure out getting them in different colors and sizes. Here is a picture of us modeling them outside an Ikea!

Pictures

There is a mirror in my book, that helps Ava. My brother in law drew a quick sketch of how I pictured it and here it is.

Moving forward

I got my critique back and they pretty much love everything. The title, the story line, the characters. The only thing that needed work was my grammar and I was not surprised at that.
I have now fixed what they have asked me to, and have filled out a sheet, that they send out to publishers, and keep in their data base for publisher to search. I am so excited.
Oh and my brother in law Dave Allen is drawing more sketches of things in the book. I will post them soon, as they are brilliant.
Right now things are looking good, not expecting it to happen over night though. I know it is still a long process. Just enjoying the ride, where ever it takes me.
