Still Writing

Well, I thought I was done with Dauntless Privateers, but as I got deeper into the editing, I found I needed to break up some long chapters, which forced some rewriting.  Not unanticipated.  It reminds me of something I heard from another writer, that he'd end up re-writing every sentence ten times, or was it fifty?  I don't think I'm that detailed, but I will say every time I read it, I see where I can improve.  The cycle continues, write, edit, re-write, edit...  You get the picture.

Even with Dance Noir, I realize I could have done better. That ink has dried, so I will have to improve my technique and detail on each subsequent release.

I have a working title and cover art for the next in the Nick Gazelle Investigation series.  I just posted that to my Author Site (RigginsWrites.com), so take a look when you get a chance.  Drop me a note and let me know what you think of the artwork and title.
