    I’m turning in my manuscript (for real this time)

    By Jennifer 8. Lee | September 5, 2007

    Copyedited, factchecked, read-aloud, parsed, reworked. Yay. Done. I’m getting on the Subway to go to the publisher’s office. It is a paper document) From here it goes to galleys. It has been a three-month birthing process. During Labor Day someone asked me “How was your summer?” My first thought was “Why is he using the past tense?” Then I realized that the summer was indeed (symbolically) over. School is starting. Weather is during cooler. Halloween is not so far away. I thought, but I just turned my manuscript in at the beginning of June. Is it already September? Where did the summer go?!
