Beginning August 1st, I will commence my 6th or 7th formal re-write of La Fleur. I have decided to split it into two novels, a Book I and Book II. Still tossing around the titles... I think they will be
La Rose, Book I Le Baton Series. The second half will be
La Fleur, Book II Le Baton Series. It may make a bit more since, since Lela is La Rose and Josephine is La Fleur. Still thinking about it though. We will see what August 1st brings!
I think this is a great idea! Your word count was too high for one novel. I don't know much, but I have learned that agents look at that and will toss a good query away just because of word count. I know, it's not fair, but that's how they roll. Good luck with your rewrite. I've been doing a little soul searching about my ms, too. It may need a little rewriting. Maybe I'll start August 1st, too!
