I’ve seen two or three others gobsmacked when, sometimes after several books have been published, the agent or the publisher says “No, no, that’s not what we wanted”.

But you will do the rewrite and do it supremely well, of that I’m certain.

Even when it hurts like hell, you have to listen when you’re told what’s not right. That’s one of the many reasons I admire you so much — how open you are to input and critique.

All the best on the rewrite. Having just finished my mammoth rework from 2nd to 3rd, I can say with utter honesty, I feel your pain. *ggg*

So looking forward to it. Loved the finished version of Shadow of Tyr.

As someone who suggests changes I keep my editorial hat on until the moment I come up with an idea on how to make the change, then I rip the E hat off and put the writer hat on.

Seems to be working so far!

And having devoured Shadow of Tyr on Christmas Day I can only say get those changes done fast, lady! I’m hanging out for the third book!
