Ghost in My Suitcase will be out next year.

The writing process is a long one. Once a book is written which usually takes me about one year, it has to go through a lot of stages before you see it out in the bookshops. First it has to be accepted by a publisher which is always an uncertainty. But once it is accepted then the editing stage begins. At this time the editor might suggest changing whole scenes or deleting chapters. They might say there’s not enough tension in a certain spot or this minor character needs a more major role etc. etc. As an author, you can get very wrapped up in your own story, therefore you need someone outside of yourself to make comments. This is called a structural edit. Once that stage is finished then comes the checking for spelling mistakes and wrong grammar.

Sometimes, even though there is so much careful checking beforehand, you will still find mistakes in books.
