I recently picked up a story I started a year and a half ago as well. It's a rewritten The Little Mermaid (the Hans Christian Andersen version, not the Disney version), from the perspective of one of her sisters. It's going to follow the original story fairly closely (I may have taken a few liberties), with some Greek mythology thrown in for good measure. I'm 46,129 words and 12 chapters in, and dozens of edits away from a final product. I am not sure what I'll do with it when I'm done. Maybe I'll self-publish that one. Who knows? Self-publishing is going fairly well these days.
Also, on a slightly more scary (for me) note, I am allowing more and more people read my books! Yay me! Putting myself out there!
Woot I still need to read the one you sent me. The Little Mermaid version sounds interesting!!
ReplyDeleteWhere is my copy?! :P I'm no good as an editor for you probably but it sounds like something I'd enjoy
