Tayari's Blog: (At Least) One More Round of Revisions

I am heading out for the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts to take my manuscript through another draft. Check out my horoscope:

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Don't leave me hanging, Sagittarius. What happens next? How could you even imagine you've wrapped the whole thing up? According to my analysis, you've got at least one more riddle to solve, one more gift to negotiate, one more scar to wish upon. (Yes, that says "scar," not "star.") To stop pushing for more adventure at this pregnant moment would be a crime against nature and a whole chapter short of a bestseller. Get out there and bring this story home.

Is that right on time, or what? I'll be deep into my work, but if you want to be pen pals, send me a letter or postcard. I'll write you back:

This is perfect, Tayari. And I'm a big believer in stars - and scars!
