Again? Yes, Revise One Last Time

You know the last leg of the race, when your lungs are burning and your right leg muscle is almost cramping and your feet hurt? 

I'm there. I cut 15k words out of my last draft. I've gotten the survey back from all my beta readers. I'm making last minute revisions. And I want to quit. Every. Second.

I want to send my book out as good enough. I want to put aside the two short stories I'm finishing and just dive fully into the next book. I want to be done. But I'm not. 

So this post is about endurance. It's about sucking it up, and realizing you're not at the finish line and you probably have around a week more of revisions before you send out your finalized query w/ your 2pg. synopsis and possibly the first 8-10 pages of your incredible book. 


It's about writing a book people won't put down. It's about being committed to the product AND the process. 

Now get back to work!
