At this point, the story has a long way to go. I’ve barely even scraped the surface of this world and its people even sixty-four pages in. I’ll admit, such an amount of writing in such a short time as one month is an accomplishment, but there’s no point to patting myself on the back until it’s complete. 

As a result I need to set goals as to how I’m to go about this story; earmark different points at which I can step back and take a look at what I’ve written so far, to ensure continuity within my work even with little editing.

On the subject of editing, I don’t intend to edit my work until I’ve completed the first draft, at the very least. Not until I am able to hold a bundle of pages within two hands and call it a story will I be done with the draft, and it will go through at least five revisions before I think about sending it to a publisher.

In the meantime, I have gathered a couple of links to useful sites regarding the publishing of work, either by self-publishing or how to go about sending work to a publishing company, and have listed them below for the usage of anyone who bothers to stumble across this bit of writing. I will continue to add to this post as I find links, and at some point go back in and evaluate their usefulness for anyone interested in writing/publishing.
