Neverland is DONE!!

One script, three drafts, and more than a year later, I am finally - FINALLY - done with the complete first draft of No Room in Neverland.

*throws confetti*

*does a happy dance*

*spends a day taking a complete break from Neverland*

*reality sinks in*

Now for the even harder part - crafting a query letter and synopsis. Because, really, how are we supposed to condense a 79,000-word novel into approximately 250 words that will hook a literary agent to request for the complete manuscript and eventually sign you on (query letter), or 500 to 750 words that will cover all the salient characters, plots, sub-plots, complications, and resolution (synopsis)? HOW?

*bangs head on desk*

*stares blankly at page*

*writes a draft*

*visits Tumblr*

*rewrites*

*posts an Instagram photo*


*rewrites again*

*keeps rewriting*

Happy Tuesday! :0)
