Deadline Day

Quick update. Spent the weekend writing. The manuscript is currently 216 pages. Longer than I needed. The book is due today so I'm kind of panicked right now that I can finish polishing and inputing the changes in time. I'm shooting for an email time of ten pm so it's in my editor's London inbox when she arrives to the office tomorrow morning.

As for the book...

My critique partner extraordinaire saved my hero, Jared, from being completely emasculated in the final chapter. I stayed up until 2 am rewriting my girlie man into a man's man. It works much better now. Huge sigh of relief.

I'm off to polish, polish, polish so I can buff my rough diamond into something that will sparkle!
