The Kind Of Revision Letter Every Writer Dreams Of Getting

[dr_pretentious]

Sarah, I don't think I've ever edited a manuscript that clean before. I had very little to do--a couple of things here and there, self-explanatory, and most of them I'll defer to you if you disagree with me.

And that's it. I hope I haven't used up all my good revision letter karma on the first book.

Thank you, faithful beta readers. You know who you are. I don't do too badly on my own, but it takes help from a lot of keen, fresh eyes to earn a revision letter like that. You make me look good.

You are truly and most magnificently awesome.

As to using up your karma - did you do anything with this manuscript that you won't do again? It seems to me that you have developed a winning system for getting your work up to your own very high standards - you rock!

Very cool. I am sure I am not the only one who is eager to read you stuff. Finding the rare typo is a small price for being nearer the front of the line. I can still just imagine running any of the Rugosa coven at a local pagan event or hanging out at the Jersey shore.
