On Novel Writing XII

I haven’t mentioned my work-in-progress lite novel manuscript in a while, but I haven’t stopped working on it. Last Wednesday, with the authorization of my department head, I shared and discussed the first 10 pages of my book with my Intro to Literature class that I teach part-time at the local St. Petersburg College campus. I’m pleased by the reception that the excerpt received from my students. I choose to believe that they honestly liked it rather than just patronized me. I still have some revisions and changes that I’d like to make to the text, but I think that relatively soon I’ll begin publicly sharing exerpts of the book here through AnimeNation and solicit some AnimeNation site visitors to serve as early reviewers.
