It Is Done...

Yesterday, I finally completed Beyond the Milky Way! I'm so excited yet terrified all the same for this feat because it means so many things. Right now, I've printed out the entire story: 213 pages, in hopes of rereading it, making changes and then rewriting it. Then, I have three friends who I will enlist their help to go over it as well. THEN I will send off to various publishers, to see who will take the bait. I was told to submit to all of them at the same time; that way, I can get all my rejections at once! :D

I've come to learn not to expect any good news with this, particularly seeing that the reads have dwindled drastically. A bit upsetting: if readers aren't willing to read this story for free, what makes me think they're gonna pay for it?

Anyway, that's part of my doubts about this journey. But, no one will be able to say that J Linz didn't at least try. So, there's that. :)

Alright. I'm off to go edit. Or procrastinate and eat cake: those who know me, know which one I will actually do! Wish me luck.
