Ok the first test read is in; my wife finished up and once again came through with detailed and valuable feedback. I’ll hear from the others this weekend and see what I’ve got then as the first draft of THE SILENT ARMY wraps up I think I’ll take a breather from it and tackle the APPLE rewrite which should only take a couple of weeks.
First thing that needs to go is the title (I have no delusions about my title picking; I am not good at it) then there is some rework to do. Good test readers will find a lot of leaks and the initial discussion we had about it has totally got me ready to dive back in. The time away from the project has also given me a new perspective on certain things. Once I’ve got my ducks in a row I’ll forward it to my agent and see what he thinks.
