Finished with the revision of Of Love and Coffee. I’m thinking that I’m going to send this one to Lulu.com, get one or two printed, and give them out at the Starbucks where I wrote the rough draft. Only a few of the people who worked there when I wrote it are still there, but they might get a chuckle out of it. If nothing else, they might tell me where I erred. LOL.
This was a fun book to write, and it’s a pretty good book all in all. That still surprises me. The revision comes in at just shy of 50k words (I cut 1k words… Hope I can cut a similar proportion of words in the next revision of Mancunian Waltz…) I don’t think a 50k word romance is marketable, but I don’t know. Don’t know if I care. 
So, now another break and then it’s on to Friends and Lovers.

Congratulations, Tara. Great accomplishment. Whether it’s 50k words or a 120k words, completing a story is awesome. It’s encouraging to see all your writing activity on various works in progress. I’ve got several going that I’ve been avoiding lately, but am now feeling recharged and ready to take them on. Wish me luck!

Good luck Dave!
I’m resting now for a bit before I take on another major rewrite. My 2009 NaNoWriMo novel is in shambles, and I don’t want to spend another November on a rewrite. Last year was enough. I’m ready for something new.
