2006.9.11 “Wasp” New Date to Sub My Book
September 11, 2006
My original plan was to submit my suspense novel, The Wasp, tomorrow but that date is now changed to December 12, 2006. The Wasp is still a work in progress and I don’t feel I have it to a point where I could send a ‘good’ proposal out to agents or publishers. I’m disappointed I haven’t worked as hard as I could’ve on getting it fleshed out. The bones (outline) seems very solid and I don’t anticipate any major changes there, though I do see a lot of little changes as it’s fleshed out; and who knows, maybe there will be some major changes.
My goal is to write 16 hours per week, but I’m not even close to that. I’ve set myself up a calendar and I’m keeping track of the time I’m putting in and working on increasing that time weekly until I reach my goal. I’m including reading about writing, and novels, in that time; but of course, writing has to be the majority. Even thinking out the plot or characters is an important use of the time.
