As much as I've loved participating in the challenge, I'm not good at balancing my work so i felt like i neglected my manuscript, but now that the end is near , I'm itching to get back to my editing and quering so hopefully I benefited from the time off . I love the snowflake method. It sounds like you've made amazing progress so congratulations .Melissa Sugarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16268333458796847721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8734784788047557767.post-43765484222896884032013-04-21T20:42:06.039+01:002013-04-21T20:42:06.039+01:00Congratulations on the progress!
