I am super duper pumped!!! Let me tell you why...
I have done it. I finally edited my book enough on my own that I feel satisfied to send the whole thing out into the world for some other opinions. I am scared to death, let me tell you! I spend enough time telling myself that it could be better and to possibly get a confirmation from others that it's true is terrifying, but you know what? It has to be done. I can only learn and grow from this process right? These are the baby steps that I need to take in order to really become a great writer. If I live in my own cocoon then I will never grow.
For anyone out there looking for some awesome critique groups I am part of two.
A Writer's Block is a group that I joined last year and we do a chapter critique a month. I love this group for grammar and immediate insight per chapter. Plus as I have gotten to know these ladies I have grown to love them. They're awesome!!!
Mormon Mommy Writer's is the other group I am a member of. I am fairly new to this group but still just as excited about it. Personally, for m this group will help me because I am writing an LDS Romance and this group can relate to that kind of perspective. You don't have to be a Mormon to be a member of this group however. With MMW, they have a critique group for chapters as well as a full book critique. I opted for the full critique and hopefully can get some tips on my book as a whole.
