I have been totally a sloth writer. My book has been in its second revision for I don’t know how long and my friend and author Elizabeth Burgess got me to send her my first chapter as it was.
What a mess I it was. Elizabeth, really showed me some ways to make improvements in my writing.
It was really scary but so worth doing. I am so glad I put my big girl panties on. A real inspiring moment for me.

It’s always good if you can get a critique partner to help out. Sounds like your friend is a great help. 🙂 Good luck with the editing/revision
