GP1 Out for Editing!

June 27, 2018

D.A. Godwin

And it’s officially released to the editor! (Yes, I made one more pass through it first.) Now the waiting begins…

I'm David Godwin, and I do creative things. Lots of different things, actually, but this site is about my books, which I hope you'll enjoy reading as much as I've enjoyed writing them.

GP3 Title Reveal: WEAPONFORGER
.
A time to become that which you must…
.
Shalindra and her band of refugees sought a new life, her quest to become Guardian forgotten after fleeing a war she was not allowed to win. Tormjere’s mysterious return upsets what peace they have achieved, rekindling her desire and placing her feet once more on a path of divine destiny.
.
But allies prove elusive, and the demons that hound her are far less terrifying than the ones Tormjere now carries inside.
.
She must find a way to vanquish both before ascending to her place in an ancient battle of unimaginable consequence, one that threatens to consume both friend and foe alike.

To edit by hand or by keyboard? I do both, but my preference is absolutely for printing it out and editing by hand. I find that it’s much easier to focus on the story rather than the wiggling of my fingers, and flipping back and forth to check continuity is faster.
.
It does add time to the editing cycle because I then have to type it all back in, which usually takes just as long as the original hand edit.
.
And speaking of edits, observant readers will have noticed that I’m working on the third Guardian’s Prophecy book right now. Beta reads will be coming back at the end of the month, but I’m getting a jump on it now to try to push the timeline ahead where I can.
.
The response to Hunter’s Moon has been phenomenal, and I can’t wait to get the next part of the story out there!

Draft 3 of the third Guardian’s Prophecy book is out for beta reads! Really liking how many details bubbled to the surface, but after a month of editing I’m going to enjoy a guilt-free zero word day and spend some time with one of the classics.

Wanted to give a shout out to all my Australian readers this month. Thank you so much for all the page reads and purchases! As an author, it’s incredibly gratifying to know that people from other countries and cultures are enjoying the story I’ve worked so hard to create.

I’ve never had the opportunity to visit to the land down under, but I hope to see it someday soon. .

Lots of fun seeing this show. It’s amazing how much better a live performance is over a recorded one, no matter how good the sound quality.

Midweek mood. The funny thing is that my characters are dealing with similar weather right now, which helps the words flow faster. #amwritingfantasy
