Congrats on your first draft. What's your genre? I try to list competitions, etc. for various genres. If it's a YA, be sure to check out my latest post on the Gotham Writer's 250 word competition. Even though you're in the editing stage, Gotham is accepting 250 words as a screening process to find up-and-coming writers. You never know where competitions will lead, but one thing's for sure, they help keep your mind sharp and your writing tight. Best wishes, Rita Lorraine Hi Carolyn,

I have the first draft of a novel now - the first one of many I've started. I got to 'the end' with this one by just devoting every moment to the writing for a month. Now, though, it's time to work of the second draft. I have your thoughts here to help me with it. I enjoyed this very much. I have the first draft of a novel now – the first one of many I’ve started.
