Today was a day of accomplishment and a huge step toward one of my goals for this year. I turned my manuscript for Secrets of Happy Couples to my editor. She wanted it today by noon. I’m really happy she’s on the west coast–that gave me two extra hours. My deadline was 2 PM and I got it to her at 2:05! I was desperately working on it right down to the wire but wow, what a great feeling to be able to put it in her capable hands.

Afterward, my guy offered to take me out to celebrate. He’s such a great guy. We drove into the city, did a little shopping and then found an obscure restaurant on the northside. It had ambiance, great food, big portions and reasonable prices. What more could you ask for? It was perfect!

I was so ready to go to bed when we got home. I have been burning the candle at both ends trying to get this book finished. I’m so relieved to have the book out of my hands but now the hard work starts. I have to create a marketing plan.

Anyone know anything about marketing non-fiction?
