First Draft Complete

Yay! I’m officially done with the first draft of my first novel!

I am so glad that I was able to put together a whole novel without ever writing anything like this before. The work is fiction set in Rome and it’s full of fun adventures that I can’t wait for you all to read. Of course, I have a long way to go to get this piece published. I don’t have an agent yet and I know I will need to do some edits to my work.

First step: I have five beta-readers lined up to read my work for its content. These are five people I hand picked based on the fact that they are avid readers and most likely fit into my target market. Thanks in advance to all five.

After I receive their feedback, I will revisit and make any changes needed to polish my work.

Check back for my next update: after the first round of edits.
