I am just about ready to send the corrected proofs of 'The Leftovers Handbook' off to my publishers.
That was hard work, I can tell you.
Writing the book was mostly done at a
pretty even pace, I didn't shirk but then again I didn't rush. Working through
the proofs was done to a deadline and there seemed so much to do! This is my first book and I hadn't realised
what this stage would involve. I'm
learning lots and next time (!) I shall be more prepared.
Because there was more editing to do than
expected at this late stage the publishing date has been put back, tentatively,
to May although I think it still hoped to get it out before then so, of course,
I'll let you know!
Now I am going to have some of these ...
... because I'm worth it (and knackered).
Cheers and good night
Suzy Bowler
