    Manuel Carrillo III liked an update for Rock of Ages

    Whoa. I don’t really know what to say about everything. Just whoa. This world.

    I wanted to let you know I got another letter from my editor. She loved the last draft but there’s still some work to do. I’ll be making a lot of my characters’ direct internal dialogue and making it indirect, and further improving the contemporary story’s setting and relationships. The good news is-- I’m working with the previous manuscript! I’m not rewriting from scratch! This will be an actual new draft, not a total reworking, and that feels AMAZING. We are getting SO CLOSE.

    I’ve also been working hard on my WV punk book for WVU Press, which has an official signed contract! Yay!

    I hope you are all staying home, staying safe, and staying kind. Please reach out to me if you need some human contact. 
    I love you,
    Becca

      The story of Cassidy, cam girl in modern-day SoCal; Paloma, Fulbright scholar in newly Westernized Prague; Jane, farm girl working at the FBI in DC during WWII. Each leaves Appalachia to find a new life, only to be pulled back to the land they know.
