I'm done reading and editing my book. I can't read it anymore. It's probably still far too long, but I've cut everything that's not essential to the story at this point. It's time to start looking for an agent.
Every time I read it, I like it a little more. I keep finding little nuggets that I think will appeal to different people. And I've been thinking about where I could take my two characters in a second and third book. It could easily become a three-part romance, if a publisher is interested in where I might take the story.
I'm anxious to find an agent to get the whole publishing process started, but I'm also anxious to start working on one of the other three or four novels I have in different stages of writing. I love, love, love the characters I've been living with for the last several months, but I'm ready to live in some other worlds for a while.
I'm resisting the urge to start reading one of the books stacked on my bedside table while I start sending queries to potential agents, but I've been known to give in to literary temptation pretty easily. I do need something to read during my lunch breaks though ...
