There are many steps in the publication process. I have been fortunate enough to have finished revising the 2nd Edition of Peace:The Other Side of Anger, obtaining a publisher and now, taking the one tremendous more step for me, submitting my manuscript to an editor. My cause for CELEBRATION!
To celebrate this great step in this process, I treated two people who assisted me in completing my manuscript for a delicious dinner at a local restaurant. My Wholehearted THANKS, first of all to Betty, who is not only my Life Partner, but also my in-house resident editor-condensing some of my one sentence paragraphs to bite sized thoughts. In addition, special thanks to my friend and collaborator, Steve, who helped me create meaningful and brief surveys on the subjects of gun violence, social media and the pandemic, (three areas responsible for the revision of this book) and for his assistance in analyzing the responses of the adolescents who completed these documents.
In the photo accompanying this post, going from left to right are: yours truly, Betty, my Life Partner and in-house editor, Steve’s wife Joan and my friend and collaborator Steve.
More to come on the publishing journey from manuscript to published book. Stay Tuned!
