Quick blog post before I turn in for the night. It's been a lazy day and I couldn't go to work due to medical issues, so I spent most of the day napping and messing around with chatbots instead of being productive.
Those of you following my TikTok may have already heard the good news--I've sent my book to an editor! I found her on Fiverr which, as many know, can be hit or miss especially with editing related matters on a site saturated by ESL listings and scammers. But this particular seller offered what any good editor would: a complimentary sample edit of the first 1000 words. I was pleased with the results I got from her and, when pitted against several other editors, she had the second most professional editing technique. (The top spot was for someone who was sadly out of my budget)
So the book is currently being picked apart and scrutinized. I know I'll be depressed for a few days once I see all those red marks on the pages, but it will be well worth it when I'm able to provide a better finished novel for my readers.
And, if this editor is as good as I suspect she is, I'll likely give her a recommendation post here as well. SEO bump!
