Now my manuscript is ready to send off to the NWS. I'd finished going through the actual book itself, and then I was reading through the entry guidelines ready to start filling in the submission form and realized I had to write a one-page synopsis as well. This was something I was never looking forward to -- trying to encapsulate all the important points of the characters, the story, the plot, the arc, their relationship, and how everything changes across the span of the book IN ONE PAGE.
But I finished it up this morning and Nell's just taking a quick look at it for me before I print everything up ready to send off. I'm so excited to receive my report on it. I think the usual turnaround is about a month. Once the package has gone tomorrow I'm going to dive back into my brainstorming for The Guardians. Although I had two other ideas yesterday as well...
