Oasis In Progress

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!
