Almost half way to my word cut goal! So far, I’m on track to start querying again at the end of this month.. ❤️😬🤞

I can officially round down 7,000 words from a manuscript I SINCERELY thought I had tightened to its limits. Commercial #YA fiction is a tricky beast, but I am learning so much. #writingcommunity #wordcuts #booksky #nopainnogain #writesky

Finally caved and got a fitness watch… now comes the hard work: getting my laptop secured to my treadmill so I can write/revise while I walk.
I could walk a marathon with that set up. 😂👟🏃‍♀️💻

This morning’s word cut: 700 words. It’s slow work, but I’m getting there! #writingcommunity #booksky #revising #wordcuts

Roughly 500 more words cut this morning. Daily surgery like this is tough, but I feel things getting tighter and my manuscript will be better for it:)
Hopefully.

After a meeting with a writing coach, I am back to more word cuts this morning and… oh, the butchery and surgery required! But alas, it’s both painful and necessary. #writingcommunity #wordcuts #queryinghiatus #aspiringauthor
