I did it…
So early this morning, I submitted a manuscript I’m calling Cat’s Revealing to the Brava Writing with the Stars writing contest.
What is Cat’s Revealing? It’s a paranormal romance manuscript I’ve been working like mad on for the past month, originally I wrote it back in 2008. Even when I wrote it there was more I wanted to do with it. So I was thrilled with this opportunity to revamp it for a reason. I completely revised the story adding a new plot line, new characters, and just generally updated it.
I’m very happy with the overall product, no matter what the results of the contest.
Not that I would mind some positive results from the contest. 
after all who doesn’t want to win contests they enter. What’s the point of entering if you don’t want to win.
On the other hand, this exercise of re-writing and revising was a great experience. I really like the characters in the story, and I like the theme (forgiveness) of the story. It also showed me a lot about how my writing has changed over the past two years, where I have improved and still need to improve.
So there you have it. My paranormal romance is out in the contest, and I’ll have to wait for the next two months to see if I am a finalist. I’ll let everyone know when I hear. In the meantime you can read the prologue and first chapter of Cat’s Revealing here.
