I just finished my millionth round of editing. Boy, are my fingers tired.

Thank you! I need it. The idea isn't exactly "on trend" right now 😮‍💨

Ooo I like that too! But I understand the hesitation. Chiseling away at a novel takes so much energy. I'm always astounded by how exhausted I feel after.

There's still a chance. If your other books do, you can always bring it back to the table. What was the title?

Thank you!! That's really helpful. It was from a poem I wrote that never really worked, but I always loved that one line.

Dang! Mine fell behind the couch once, and another time I left it in a bag I rarely used, so I didn't think to look there. But if it's not somewhere like that, then I think you got some gnomes who just needed something good to read.

Between the couch cushions? Behind a pillow? Under a blanket?
