A couple of my real life friends keep asking me when Oasis is going to be published. I always tell them “As soon as I finish editing it.”
Well, assuming there’s anyone out there that cares, I’ve got two useful meters in the sidebar.
They match my process:
Line Edits - I’m going through line by line looking for typos and other errors.
Final Read - I’m reading Oasis out loud to my favorite editor (my wife, Aurora). Reading aloud helps me fix those nagging little phrasing issues and allows me to give things a nice polish. I hope.

I love those meter things!
We do the reading aloud thing too - it seems to really help Darc a lot with smoothness of dialogue and what-not. We want to do 2nd edits soon - and then query letters I think.
Best of luck with edits, Bryce! If there’s anything I can do to help, let me know!
I love the percentage bar on the side ;P… I hope you polish it up very well.. good luck, and e-mail me when you get a few billion dollars k?
