I thought I would have it completed around the first of the year, but I found myself procrastinating on making the edits that my proofreader suggested. Thank you, Michelle! After a full month of putting it off, I finally forced myself to get to work. Since I have a full-time job which requires me to stare at a computer screen all day long, I wasn&#8217;t so keen on sitting and staring at my monitor after work. I managed to do an hour or two here and there until it was all done. Or so I thought. After making the last edit, I formatted the manuscript for e-book and paperback versions, then printed it out to make sure it looked good. I noticed a sentence that could stand a bit of tweaking, and one tweak led to another. Soon, I had marked about fifty or so pages that I felt needed small changes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long story short, I ended up doing two full edits of the manuscript that I thought was already perfect. After the last pass, I convinced myself that I would never achieve 100% perfection, but I&#8217;m glad that I did make the changes I did before submitting my book to be published. While I submitted the e-book and paperback at the same time, I&#8217;m still waiting for the paperback to be released. I also managed to take a decent selfie to use for my author bio, so there&#8217;s that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-amazon wp-block-embed-amazon\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Marvin and Tige: 2nd Edition\" type=\"text\/html\" width=\"1080\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen style=\"max-width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com\/kp\/card?preview=inline&#038;linkCode=kpd&#038;ref_=k4w_oembed_3Kk4sryuSOi3mk&#038;asin=B0BCGXWT45&#038;tag=kpembed-20\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s taken forever, but my e-book for Marvin and Tige is finally available.
