The second draft of Artistic License is done. I think I’m satisfied with how this one’s turned out, so unless I have a drastic change of heart, there won’t be much dramatic rewriting at this point in time. Right now, I’m focusing on cleaning up my prose (there’s a fine line between realistic teenage boy speech and having no idea what the hell you’re saying) and probably adding a scene or two that I think would help flesh out the story as it needs to be.
As far as the agent search goes, I have a few ideas. My first pick, however, has closed query submissions for at least three months. I doubt this will be a problem, however, as I also doubt AL will be ready to be sent in to agents in three months XD I’m not THAT optimistic. In fact, as I turn twenty this year, I was thinking of waiting until at least then (my birthday is in August). I will no longer be a teenager and I will, perhaps, be taken more seriously in the publishing world. Nineteen can be considered old as far as ‘teen prodigies’ go but we’ve all seen examples of people who got published early in life. I’d rather not be one of those people
Until next time.
