I have an editor for the novel!
I met an impressive freelance editor who has edited quite a few famous books. He read the first few chapters of the novel and really connected with them. (And this was before he had a clue I was considering employing him.) So I'm saving up to get the book edited when I'm done. It will be worth the expense to polish this thing until it gleams and then connect with the right people in the world of publishing to get it where it needs to go.
I'm in the final stretch of the first draft and I'm getting a second wind. I really think this book is going to be good. Now, I have to finish it!
