Question 1: Is the editing done?
Yes and no. I know, should prospective agents stumble on this I'll be crucified, but honestly, I am at the point where I think I need to hand the manuscript over to a higher power, a professional power. No, it's not perfect, and I can even see where some of the weak points are, I'm just not sure about how to fix them.
Question 2: Don't you think you should wait until you have a sleep-rested brain to work with?
Definitely not. I always used to write my best work in the small wee hours, and I really feel in my bones that what I created tonight represents my work as best I can.
So now it begins. I'm making a 100 query pledge. 100 rejections before I even consider giving up. Maybe it will take 1000, but more than likely once I get 100 rejections from agents I'll just move onto the publishers directly. Making a mental note here to go buy a rejection binder for my first ever foray into novel submissions. I feel so very grown up alluva sudden.
