While I continue to feel like I’m spinning my wheels with this novel, I have a hunch that if I just focus I can begin to query it with literary agents around September. But I’m really going to have to focus.
I keep rereading the first act and finding things I have to change. So, I’m going to have to finally get out of the first act and start to work on the parts of the novel that are from a second draft.
But I think if I just focus that I can actually finish a novel I can query by around September first. I suppose in reality, my actual first deadline is August. I want a month to read over the novel and start to write my query letter before I actually begin the process of querying.
And, yet, who knows. Plenty of things could go wrong and all of this planning will be thrown out of the window.
