Second Read-Through

I'm happy to say that I've finished the first revision of Gift Search and have started a 2nd read-through of the manuscript.  This time I'll be mostly looking for grammatical errors, although I will also be adding details here or there.  I've added all the major parts and deleted other parts to make the manuscript more cohesive and to make the story as a whole more coherent.

I was thinking that maybe after my 3rd review I would ask for beta-readers.  A beta-reader would take the time to read through the pre-published manuscript and critique it on things like story, characters, flow, style, grammar, etc.  I was thinking about giving prizes to beta-readers, like a free copy of the finished Gift Search.

However, it's still a ways away, but if you're interested in seeing me do something like that, please sound off in the comments below.

I'm so excited to work on this second revision now that the hard part of fixing the major plot holes has been done.  Thanks to all my readers for your support!
