Great! &nbsp;Okay, before we move forward with the editing of my novel I feel it necessary to sort of...warn you about me (for lack of a better phrase). &nbsp;This is my first novel that I have finished from beginning to end. &nbsp;It's an idea that I've had since I was a junior in high school (I'm 21 now) and I'm incredibly excited to finally move forward in seeing my work actually published. &nbsp;This is also my first experience with an editor as I have finally accepted that my book baby needs help. &nbsp;Even though this is my first time using an editor I know off the back that I want to have a very personal relationship with my editor. &nbsp;The way that I write is a direct correlation to the way that I think, and I was never really the type of person that was open enough to share my thoughts. &nbsp;So, publishing this book is a huge step for me because I'm literally showing the world a side of me that only a very select few people have ever seen. &nbsp;With that being said I hope you are ready for a new best friend, because I want this book to be amazing, and not just this one as it is only the first in a series. &nbsp;I'm incredibly persistent. &nbsp;You'll probably end up getting a couple dozen (bakers dozen) emails from me throughout this editing process. &nbsp;I am a bewildering person (that is actually a description that I've recieved before). &nbsp;I know exactly what I want to say, but as a new writer with no real formal training it doesn't always come out as I envision it in my head. &nbsp;I'm honestly not sure if this is standard editor-to-client etiquette, but to be honest I don't care. &nbsp;If expressing how I feel in regards to my book is considered unusual then maybe an unusual editor is exactly what I need, after all I am a pretty unusual young woman.&nbsp;<br /><br />
