Well, I sent off my list of corrections to
the editor and now I wait once again. I know I was able to catch a few errors,
but always the worry that there may be more. After all, if the pub's editor
missed some -- ones that I noticed -- then what? I'm not going to stress over it
though. At least I feel between the two of us we did a great job.
It's difficult to read my work so many times. I wish I could be one of those who experience it anew. I envy that. Still, I think it's good, really good, the best story I've written so far. I love my characters, especially Tante Louise Picault. She's old but feisty, and colorful with the perfect touch of french culture. The southern feel to the characters makes them approachable and loveable. I'm optimistic that readers will find them endearing and drawn to their story that weaves mystery from the past and the present. The touch of paranormal with the main character who uses dreams from spirits to gather clues is yet another layer to interest, I hope, many. We will see.
In the meantime, I wait, patiently.
