And actually, through miscommunication, my first paperback came out before I edited some tiny errors. I was able to edit them in the hardcover and epub, which will be coming in the next few weeks.

The writing is awesome, and often difficult, but I push forward. If I got caught up on a sentence, or how to convey my thoughts in an awesome way, I just moved on, knowing I would get to it in the editing with a fresh mind.
I ADMIT I LOVE EDITING! The magic happens in the editing. There were seriously major items I added, that were hilarious, in the 25th edit! Give it time, let it marinate.(less)
