Editing begins

Okay, so I have been editing my own work, and have ask a very close friend of mine to help edit my work bringing fresh eyes to it. 

Normally, there are paid editors that work for publishers and whatnot, but since I'm not going the traditional route at this point in time, I needed to find someone to do it for me.

I could pay someone a lot of money I don't have, but why do that when you know someone willing to help you because they are like family and don't care about a thing like money. 

We have been friends since right before we entered the 7th grade. We were inseparable for so long. We share the same first and middle name and use to share the same initial for our last names. Now we raise our children together even though we don't live close enough to spend more time together. 

Anyway, I have her editing as of tomorrow when I give her a hard copy of the book instead of sending it through email like I have been. Now she will have it in her hands and be able to read any time instead of when she can get time sit in front of the computer. 

I don't think she knows what she has gotten herself into. I don't have a way to print front and back of pages. Wish I did. So she gets 200 pages of only front pages. 

Here is a picture of what she gets.

She will be reading all of that. Editing as she goes. Giving input on it. She will be doing that as of tomorrow. 

She will as doing my photo for Facebook page. What an awesome small group of friends have. I'm glad that we would do anything for each other. 

My two very close friends are like the sisters I should have had. I don't have any except for the ones that I got when I married my husband. That includes the spouses married to his brothers along with his little sister. 

I just wanted to share this with you. Not everyone can say they have friends like this, but I'm glad I do.

Thank you for reading. Questions, comments, or whatever can be left in the comment box or send me a person message and I will answer it. Never to busy for fans.

Thank you!
