Round One Completed

Round one of edits on Fated Mates are completed. My editor sent me the edits Saturday night and I spent yesterday working on them. It wasn't too bad. If fact it was quite easy, so I'm hoping the worst is not yet to come. There was a lot of comma inserting and deleting, totally can handle that! She also asked me to make the prologue the epilogue because it gives away that the characters got together. I write erotic romance with   happily ever afters. Of course the main characters are going to get together! But again, not a big edit, so I did it. Then I sent it off. I think she was a little shocked that it took me such a short time. Hey, the hubby was still away filming Batman. I had a lot of extra time on my hands.

I would have to say the experience of being an extra was not a good one for my husband. First off, the hotel that I booked for him and a friend was a total rat trap. Never stay at the Comfort Inn and Suites in Pittsburgh that's all I have to say. He took pictures of the room. I would have slept in the car. The room had no windows (they had been stuccoed (?) shut), exposed electrical outlet wires, and they had to walk into a pitch black room to turn on the light because the overhead switch didn't work. Lets put in this way, I made the hubby strip at the door, not in a good way, and place all of his things in a plastic bag. Then I immediate made him take a shower. I think he was so happy to be home that he didn't mind the prison strip and shower. I'm sorry but I have issues. I accept them and embrace them.

Oh, and I will be writing to Comfort Inn and Suites to get my money back! The pictures will be included.

Peace out,
MRD
