The gatekeepers are on a break! Calling all flavors of Star Wars fan to listen to the latest episode @andorkspod.com w/ yours truly joining your hosts Alex and Rusteen!

The printed first draft of a book on a desk waiting to be noted for rewrites. A cat snoozes on the desk in the background.

First draft, COMPLETE! 


Next steps? REWRITES. Then back to the query trenches.

LIT-WORLD FRIENDS — What are your experiences with professional beta readers? Do you work with people you know? Acquaintances? What’s the expense like? Comment or DM me, I’d love to know your thoughts.

First post as we wrap nanowrimo. May this poem born from torn-out hair be a helpful guide:

Damn-it,
Dan it’s
“Its” not “it’s.”
Except when it’s
It’s, then its
Apostrophe’s a sign that it’s
For it is, not for its it.

Happy writing.
