It’s time to edit Forgiveness. I’m sure we would all wish we could honestly edit the act of forgiveness and make things as they were before the forgiveness is needed. Not only am I glad that that edit key doesn’t work, but also that I’m talking about my short story.

I’ve edited and fleshed out the first two ‘chapterettes’ and need to work the last three. I need to come up with another 900 words to meet my 5000 word goal. When I started working on this project with Kissa Starling a million years ago, I never thought I’d be this far along and actually fleshing things out and listening to the editors at the publishing houses. Don’t get me wrong, I do take criticism well, it’s just that was my first baby and it had been turned down. The first house I sent it to; nada. The second house I sent it to, didn’t understand it. I personally think that they should have read it a little better, it was only 4000 at the time.

But now that I sit back and realize I’m being a big baby, it’s time to submit again. So tomorrow is for working on nothing but the last three ‘chapterettes’ to complete this and send it somewhere. Here’s the tag line if you’re interested.

When the wires of communication in marriage get crossed and tangled, is love enough to bring everything back into balance?

Mary is prepared for the anniversary of a lifetime, but Joe isn’t even on the radar. When her worst fears seem to come into play, will their anniversary plans fail, or will love win out in the end?
