@authornikki.bsky.socialGot my writing assistant his own desk chair.
@authornikki.bsky.socialMost of it. It goes to a professional editor when I'm done.
@authornikki.bsky.socialThe first pass is for consistency across the trilogy and general improvements. Later passes will look for filter and filler words, grammar and typos, etc.
@authornikki.bsky.socialThanks! First draft is about 105k. It will inevitably change a bit in editing.
@authornikki.bsky.socialThank you!
@authornikki.bsky.socialThanks, Nils!
@authornikki.bsky.socialJust wrote "The End" on the third book in my new nobledark epic fantasy trilogy. Now I can focus on the part that makes a story really shine. Editing. Editing. Editing.
@authornikki.bsky.socialI was struggling with the final chapter of my book yesterday. Hopped in the shower this morning and instantly had ideas. Brains are weird. Showers are magic.
