First Draft Finished.


Hurrah!
I finished the first draft of Another Bloody Love Story last week. Here it is.

Well, half of it. I've got as far as chapter 31 with the editing. When I've fully copy edited it, I'll get this first draft bound at lulu (for myself only) and leave it until September to read through, so that it can be a fresh story in my mind and I can spot the plot holes and flaws. Then I'll take it offline, edit once more and send out.

Thank you :)

I actually had a day off yesterday and went to Newcastle and Tynemouth.

I always get one copy printed at lulu - the trouble is, I now have seven first drafts on my shelves, all sulking!

Great title and I love the idea of getting a POD copy as it will feel like a 'real' book and give you a better feel for it.

Well done!!!

That's a lovely idea to get a bound copy for yourself. The joys of technology, eh?
