It took most of the day to get it finished and a final grammar check through the entire manuscript. Now it's finished and sent to my editors, so it is just a matter of time before it will be published.
The last step will be to go through the final format, the galley, which shouldn't take long, and then I will see the book in my hands soon after.
The final word count is 193,598 and 508 pages including the front pages. It actually ended up a few pages longer with the revision than it was when I sent it to them the first time.
That and laundry has been my day. I did go to the pool first thing this morning.
How has your day been? Thanks for reading.

@PainsOnSlate I haven't done it much. It's okay. I just can't keep up, so I just swim.

@MsBooklover You're joking - right? Organized is something I've never been accused of before.

@just4him You seem like such an organized person. You could write a book on getting everything right in your life--from your relationship with God to the physical aspects of life...and your schedule.

It is. So now I wait for the galley proof and once I go through that and approve it, then it will be published.
