Lie in Deathworld

Lie in Deathworld - Update 1

My first ever crime thriller, which is looking for an agent, is now on hold of agent hunting. I ran it through pro writing aid and noticed a few fuck ups, that I kept missing. So, I hunted for an editor. Most are way out of my COVID-19 affected wallet. Luckily, I stumbled across a lady who edits for her own pleasure (I guess) and charges an agreeable amount. It's a proofread and should catch what I missed. That being said, not all edits are prefect and I'm going to need to go through it again.

I've also redone the cover and adjusted the title. I'm looking for legacy publishing more than self publishing, but it's always nice to have a cover just for the hell of it. The covers were made using "Canva", as my old software Corel Paintshop Pro, no longer works for some reason. Also, Canva is pretty easy. Here's a canva aff link so we both can earn points for premium content. https://www.canva.com/join/vpx-jdw-ycq hahahaha.

It is meant to be good luck to see that (according to Japan) and for my birthday next month, I7m allowed to get a new MacBook Pro 13 inch! It works! I'll repost that image here for those who didn't see it in the original post. I took this photo with Go...
