Pernell Rogers – Writer

Archive for October 26th, 2022

Hi all. I’m getting closer to publishing but had a setback. My editor is moving on to bigger and better things, and I wish her luck, but I’ll miss her. I’m searching for another editor now who could perform a line edit, followed by a copy edit. Once I find that person, I can move forward.

With so many stories in the chamber, ready to be edited, I decided to start on my next novel. This idea isn’t fully formed yet. I’ve written the first 20,000 words and hit a brick wall. I have no idea where to go. It’s happened before, and I hate it. Jumbling different ideas and brainstorming only to find flaws with it fitting in with the existing story. I’ll work through it, but it’s a pain! However, this is the part of writing I enjoy the most – finding the elusive idea that could allow me to continue. I’ve done it many times in the past, and once you get it, it seems like it’s been staring you in the face the entire time.

I’ve also been prepping myself for marketing since I’ll be doing a lot of it with so many stories in backlog. It looks like I’ll have to be a little more aggressive. Take care!
