Project 2 Update
I spent the last three days going through a manuscript I received with corrections and suggestions on how to improve the novel.

In two hours I will receive the last phone call from my beta readers with feedback on Project 2. I will then proceed to edit the text once more before sending it to my tutor (when he becomes available. He’s in the USA at the moment). I also resumed Project 1! This is very exciting … Read more
