My New Book... (Page 1 of 2)

My new book? Does that mean you've got other's? What's it about?

That sounds rather interesting, mrbond.

I'll be looking forward to hearing more about it. A pity the publishing deal for your first book fell through.

I do hope the response you got from the publishing company wasn't anything like this:

Kind regards,

Evert

Good luck on your endeavour, mrbond.  As they say: "Come on in...the water's warm!" 

A little   

That's funny

You do!

Good for you!  Sounds like pretty quick work, judging by the date of your first post, so that's pretty impressive    I started my current project in '07 (though I took a 6-month break to rewrite another one), and just finished today...so I'm quite envious of your productivity.  Looking forward to seeing your work!    As the cliche goes...it's not as easy as it looks...cheers!

At this rate, you could easily knock out another 24 by the years end.  Is it like a ladybird book?

My first draft took three months. The next draft went to a publisher, then came back two months later with a tear-jerking critique. Two more drafts, a re-write, an editor and an agent's input, and six months later the publisher took it back. A copy-editor and myself did another re-write over the next five months. A year after all this and it was in print. Another six months for the first royalty cheque, advance subtracted, of course. Get used to waiting and don't rush anything.

Thesecretagent what is your book called?
