I'm an inveterate coward.
I've finished, edited, re-edited, added, taken away, and I think it's finally done.
It's nothing profound. 75000 words of silly, swashbuckling, fairytale nonsense for young adults/precocious children.
So what do I do now?
Like I say, I'm a coward.
My favourite review I've had so far from the few people who have read it, was from my ds (11). I put it on his kindle and didn't tell him I'd written it. He wanted to know if there were more books by "this author" because he loved it.
So that helped my confidence a bit.
I've considered self-publishing but don't know where to start.
I want to try to send it to agents, but don't know who or how.
Everyone here seems so knowledgeable and I feel like a fraud :o
(Did the flattery work?!)

Ok, so it's finished. I think. Only took me 12 years! What now?
