First Draft of Burning Sky

Today I am very happy to announce that I finished the first draft of my novel Burning Sky. I can't really begin to explain how happy I am. I stayed up until it was almost dawn to finish it. I am so excited about it but unfortunatelly now comes the editing part. I am really curious to see how good I am at that. Hopefully it will be perfect and ready to publish in a month or so.

After I do my part  I am sending it over to my Beta reader Heidi @ http://rainydayramblings.typepad.com/ hopefully her head won't explode with all my mistakes. It's really hard to write sometimes, not just because English is not my native language but also because my brain just works faster than my fingers and sometimes I skip words and whole sentences to keep up with it. Hopefully I'll correct all those errors myself.

Anyways, I hope it all works smoothly because Burning Sky will be my first book "out there" and I just want everything to be perfect, or at least as perfect as possible.

Oh, and just to let you know a few things about Burning Sky if you are wondering. Well, it's YA paranormal and it has my fav legendary creatures in it. DRAGONS. I am a sucker for dragons. Oh, and by the way, the banner at the beginning of the post is part of the cover.

So, wish me luck!

  5. How awesomesauce, Veronica!! And I do not use that word lightly. I'm so happy to see you taking the leap into authoring too! Burning Sky sounds fantastic - I just know that with a dragons YA book, a beta reader like Heidi, and a cover like what I'm imagining, the novel's going to take off like a helicopter :D
