Where have I been? Lost in finishing HIS Return. Only now I’m lost in editing. My critique partner and editor agreed a subplot (an exciting twist in my mind) should be axed. After I pouted for a long while, I went to work since it means some significant rewriting. While I love the subplot, they are, of course, correct. Jake … Read More

I didn’t print the ones emailed to me. Nor did … Read More
