Dear Journal,
My editor is the best! She is not only good at her job, but she also enjoys it, which makes her a joy to work with. We were laughing recently because she came across this funny mistake that all the other people who edited the book missed (even her on her first round). There is a scene in my book, The Story, where three of my characters enter a wooded area, and the main character, the narrator, explains how well he and his two friends work together due to their time fighting in wars together. But the way I wrote the sentence made it sound like they had fought battles with bushes! It was so funny! You had to be there, I guess.
My editor and I were still laughing about the mistake when I had a sudden idea to create a species resembling bushes. I would love to have a species like that in one of my future books, and I actually sat down and worked on a sketch the other day. It didn’t turn out great, but I will work on it and see what I come up with.
Anyways, book one is on its way! Set to release this August, I am so excited to share it with everyone! The journey has just begun, and soon I will be off to finish up the second book!
Sincerely,
Ondrea Keigh
