The Next Steps...

Today I received my manuscript for the new book back from one of my three BETA readers. I have started going over it to review the changes/revisions/corrections that have been suggested. This is very exciting!

I still have two more readers that have not checked in yet. It will be quite interesting to see how much in common the feedback will be between them. I believe I made good choices when selecting my readers and they are all people who will definitely have a handle on doing this type of thing.

This weekend, I will be putting together a simple spreadsheet to be used as a tracking tool for detailing the similarity in the reviews. When I have entered all of the data from each reader, I can use a formula to assist in the final edits in preparation for the copy editor.

Yes this is a lot of work! But it is a labor of love, for one day soon I will see my masterpiece in print and for sale!

Stay tuned for the next update.

Best,

Wiladene
