After spending hours (around 4) reformatting my manuscript, it is on it’s way to the editor for a formal critique. All of the indents for paragraphs had to be removed. There were a lot. I found a few errors along the way. Missing letters. Misspellings that spell check doesn’t catch. The whole thing needed to be double spaced. It wasn’t. That’s the easiest correction though. I think I need to check for a common format so I never have to do this again.

I’m getting very good and efficent at jumping through hoops. This is the last main hoop. After the formal critique comes back, I send it on to the agent. Then I wait while the agent does he or her work. Editing has yet to happen and will have to happen before publishing.
