Just when I was getting a little excited that maybe my novel was…actually good?…I got someone to look at it and they pretty much said start from scratch. And their points were legitimate.
But I’m just not prepared to do that. It could take at least a year to rewrite the novel the way they suggested and it probably would be a lot longer as well. So, I’m going to use this particular novel as the tip of the spear for the next novel I’m going to start working on very soon.
I will admit that I continue to daydream, however. I continue to drift. And, yet, at the same time, I also have the deadline of Sept 1st for when I’m going to start querying the novel I have finished.
So, I guess I need to throw myself into boning up on how to query a novel. I need to do that ASAP. But, to date, I haven’t really been the mood. And, of course, I also need to start to really throw myself into development of the new novel idea I have come up with — in a dream, no less.
I don’t know. I just don’t know.
