Framing and Finishing

I have been tying up loose ends and getting back into work on editing my juvenile fiction novel The Moon in the Morning. I am in "framing mode," both with the illustrations and with the text. How a work is framed helps the viewer/reader get drawn in and focus. I have also discovered that by recording the text using Garageband on my iMac, I am able to enjoy the process and reconnect with the characters and breathe life into them. This helps me cut out and revise passages that do not ring true. It also taps into my well of delight in reading aloud and doing voices.
