Fore!

Posted on December 2, 2010 by Bev Vincent

I finished the first revision round on the WiP, reducing it from 4400 words to 4000 in the progress, which is pretty much par for the course. I tend to overwrite by about 10% in the first draft. Another day … Continue reading →

That sounds like a profile

Posted on September 30, 2010 by Bev Vincent

Posted on September 26, 2010 by Bev Vincent
