As I’m writing this, it’s about 3:00 PM on Wednesday afternoon July 3.  I am exhausted.  About 2:00 this morning, I completed the first draft.  Now I just can’t find the energy to do anything.  Today, I’ll make some changes to the manuscript suggested by my writers group Tuesday evening, but I’m not going to seriously start the revision process until Monday (that’s tomorrow for you reading this.)

I have two main things that I will be especially looking at as I do my first revision pass.  The first is to make sure that I haven’t flipped from one point of view to the other.  This story is more from Patience’s point of view, but I know I’ve slipped in a few places and given the reins to Mike.  The second is to balance out how much sex is in the story.  In the first two books, there are some strong allusions to sex, but not a blow by blow, as it were.  This book has a couple of fairly descriptive sex scenes and one not so descriptive.  I have to decide how I’m going to play it.

Of course there are plenty of other changes I’ll have to make.  I need to get them all done before I start editing.

Keep an eye on this blog, because I will be giving out coupon codes for free ebooks as soon as it’s done.  Thanks to everyone who has stopped by or written to tell me how much they enjoyed the other books and how much they are waiting for this one.
