REVISIONS HAVE BEGUN

I have started revisions! YEA me! I have revised the prologue and had to COMPLETELY rewrite chapter 1.

The original chapter 1 was a pile of donkey doo....which gave me the perfect start for the revised version of chapter 1...my heroine elbow deep in the stuff!

Sounds romantic, huh? Romantic, uh, NO....funny, I sure hope so.... action, yup, AND there is already a sexual tension building scene w/ our hero and muck covered heroine!

Ahhh, the joys of creating, fun and not nearly as painful as childbirth was.

***Upon closer examination of the previous sentence, I must correct the last statement.....creating=fun either way (g)....delivering the finished product=hard work!
