sedgwick Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 After three rounds of edits in a span of a 15 months. Holy crap. Joe has accomplished many things, but he has not written a book. I have a sneaking suspicion that what I just did was as hard as playing the fiddle. Now: laundry. Sleep.
lofi_tokyo Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 Congratulations on FINALLY finishing! I have to write a 10 page paper and an 8 page paper... and those seem like marathons right now. You've written a BOOK! That certainly is one big accomplishment!
JooLee Posted November 22, 2008 Posted November 22, 2008 congratulations! im curious.. whats your book about?
Geishawhelk Posted November 22, 2008 Posted November 22, 2008 They're connected....?! Oh crikey, I have 9 and I'm Buddhist!!
Storyrider Posted November 22, 2008 Posted November 22, 2008 I'm jealous. That's an amazing success. Congratulations. You did this, and no one else can take credit for it.
Author sedgwick Posted November 23, 2008 Author Posted November 23, 2008 I'm jealous. That's an amazing success. Congratulations. You did this, and no one else can take credit for it. Except for my incredible agent, and editor, and editor's assistant. This book would be a jumbled rambling mess if not for them. I do feel pretty good about it. I've been sitting here going over and over the thing for 15 months in kind of a void, having only received 1/3 of the advance and struggled to support myself while writing it, so it doesn't really seem real yet. I'll be a lot more excited about it six months from now! At the moment I'm just glad to have it turned in and not have to read it anymore.
lovesparis Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 congrats sedge! i'm really proud of you :)
Author sedgwick Posted November 23, 2008 Author Posted November 23, 2008 Thank you. I'm really exhausted and sort of terrified about what comes next! I know what I want to do, but it's bit complicated and out there, so hmm... More than anything I just want to dance and travel, but alas, I am poor.
Freedom Now Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 Congratulations, Sedge. Onward and upward!
