And yes, don’t want to wake up suddenly thinking ‘why didn’t I include that?’ like I did the last time!!

Remember last time when you suddenly thought of things you wished you’d changed?

Maybe have a couple of days of Panic Attack (the story!) just for something completely different???

I do seem to have done it quite quickly and perhaps that’s a bad thing. I’ll give myself at least a week’s break from it.

Anyway, don’t worry, I will keep you posted, Lucy! I’m going to need a place to wail, gnash my teeth, and tear my hair once I’ve sent the wretched thing away.

But I did that the last time I sent this ms in and perhaps it would have been better had I waited. Ah well, waiting is good for me (she says bracingly.) 😉

The sensible thing would be to put it on one side and read it through one last time in a couple of weeks, then send it off.

BUT I’ve never been sensible. I think I would be tempted to wait for your cp’s thoughts and then amend and get straight off. BUT I’m also way too impulsive and impatient so don’t listen to a word I say. 🙂

I think your idea to step away for a while is a good one. Read it with fresh eyes in a week or two.

🙂
