Way to go! And I’m SO glad to hear you didn’t sign with one of those eBook uploading services that masquerades as a publisher. Way too many new writers get taken in by those scams.

Grats & Good luck!

Hi there! It varied with each book, but I think I typically spent about a year or year and a half as well. Sometimes longer, and sometimes I’d work on novels simultaneously. But that was about my average. As soon as I started sending one out to agents/editors, I’d begin working on another. Thanks for the great question and much luck to you in your writing as well!

How long did you usually spend revising a book before you decided it was time to let go and move onto the next? Right now, I’m averaging about a year and a half.
