Shannon T. returned his draft. More typos Roxanne missed and a few good questions that I need to
sort out. I'm not quite sure how to
solve one. Once I mentioned it to
Roxanne, she said it made her wonder, too, but not enough to mark it. I think I'll wait to hear back from the
others first.
Aunt Dale apparently doesn't understand anything that's
going on in The Legacy. There
are several possible reasons: she dropped out of high school, doesn't typically
read fiction, and has no interest in this type of story. She didn't tell me though. She talked to my MawMaw, who talked to my
Mom, who told me what's going on. I
don't mind the chain of discussion.
Better that I know something rather than nothing. I haven't called her, yet, and I really need
to. At the very least, I can get that
copy back.
I confess being a little worried about Jeremy. He was on the phone with his wife and she
asked if she could be a co-writer because she has lots of ideas on how to
improve The Legacy. I said,
"No." I worked too hard on
this manuscript for so many years to bring in a co-writer. I have no problem with co-writing something
me and the other person conceptualized together or if another writer asks me to
join what they've begun and I like the project. For some reason, I doubt I'm getting that manuscript back at all.
Dolus work is going well enough. The first section is getting a heavy
reedit. I think I'm removing more work
than I'm adding, but in the end I know it'll make a better story. That's all that matters.
