Entered my first contest today

Whew! I made it. The deadline for submitting my erotic paranormal for a contest was today and I made it by the skin of my teeth. Doesn’t that sound kinda gross?

I edited and edited and edited and then edited some more. I sent my work to my critique group who edited it. Then I edited it some more. The damn things been edited to within an inch of it’s life.

Then of course sitting through workshops today at my local chapter meeting, I had an AHA moment that could make those edited to death pages even better.

I wonder, how long does it take to get it just right?

Please share some editing woes with me so I don’t feel like such a freak! LOL
