I have great news...and not so great news. The great news is I got my development editor feedback, and she did an excellent job. The comments were detailed and thorough, and her suggestions superb. The not so great news is that I agree with her that a major point of view revision is necessary to maintain the mystery and intrigue. This is going to take me considerable time to rewrite, and with the way the bookstore buying and publishing calendar works, that means I won’t be ready for an October release date. Instead, it looks like March of 2018. I suggest we shoot for a "Beware the ides of March" release date just for fun. That’s March 15th and the date of Julius Caesar’s death and an importance religious date for those unaware of its historical significance.

So, I will be a busy woman for the next six weeks, trying to complete all my revisions before sending it in for Round Two. 

Thank you for your continued support and patience, as I strive to give you the best possible book!

Cheers, Debbie
