The last few weeks have been a steady revolving door of line edits for my book…first round edits, second round edits, third round edits, and then, finally, the galley stage.

I have read this book so many times that I could probably recite it by memory.

And yet…I still like it! I’m still so proud of it. I hope you will be, too.

But…I don’t think I will ever be able to read a book again without feeling a great deal of empathy for the author.
