The first copy

This is how I will be spending the next couple of nights. My friend Tawny, as I have blogged about before, is in the process of writing her first novel. And here is the very first complete copy. She sent it to a select few of us to read in it's complete state. To say I'm excited is an understatement. I purposely did not read the last section she emailed me so I don't know how the story ends. When I emailed her and asked her if I could print it (promising to burn it when I was done) she not only gave me the authorization to print it, but asked me if I would do the first round of editing and send it back to her. So, it will be me, her book and a highlighter and pen
for the next couple of nights.

Wow...that is my dream job. I have this strange little quirky thing that makes errors pop off the page and stab me in the eye. What is the book about??????

Oh I can't tell you about the book. You'll have to wait and read it yourself when it's published. :) And I am LOVING editing this book. Not like there is a lot to edit mind you.
