I’ve recently started attacking the structural edit for my second cosy mystery, Poison at Penshaw Hall, the sequel to Murder on Milverton Square.
I’ve sliced and diced, splitting and rearranging the scenes from my first draft into a very different order: 7, 14, 15, 16a, 5, 1, 2, 16b, 3, 4, 10, 17–25, 9, 28, 12a, 27, 12b, 28a, 12c, 28b, 28c, 29, 30, 6, 31–36, 11, 37–39, 13, 40…
I know this book will be great fun once it’s been glued back together and all polished up. Please send your good vibes my way to help me get there! And, of course, Kindle ebook pre-order numbers going up always helps to lift the spirits *wink wink*.
