With all the editing I've done on my horror novel, Xmas Carol, I confess I was beginning to wonder if I was nuts. Would I ever finish the editing process? Or would I do it for the rest of my life, always finding myself changing the wording each time I read it?
Well, it turns out I'm not crazy! There is actually an end in sight. In fact, the chapters I'm leaving behind me as I work my way through the book this time -- are perfect. I heartily approve of every word.
Seriously, I was beginning to wonder (and you were too, I know). I think I'm somewhere in chapter 8, and there are only 12 chapters. So two more days and I should be done. Then I'll just have to assemble the book and sprinkle it on all the stores.
Snap! I'm not crazy! Hooray!
Here's some news: I'll post the cover tomorrow. So get back here then if you know what's good for you. Wait'll you see the cover Casey came up with. It's insanely wonderful.

I love you Keith - BUT (lol) I think you make a wonderful example why one should not edit their own work.
I gave up holding my breath. But I am looking forward to the finished product, I'm just not a very patient person.
As a former president of the United States said, "Get-er done"..........
Kisses and hugs.......Author, author!
You're right. I should hand it to my army of editors instead of getting personally involved. It would be simpler.
