What To Do After Writing Your First Draft
Emerging and experienced writers take note! Here is what to do after writing your first draft. You thought it was “write and then done”? No, my friends. There is still work to do and boxes to check after you have written your first full draft. These are the next steps on your route to being traditionally published.

Posted • We spent the weekend in NYC. Stopped this morning at the iconic New York Public Library, walking up between the lions. After that we went to the lending library across the street, where we asked the lovely librarian if IZ THE APOCALYPSE was there. She said it was and told us how to find it, and then said, “but the real prize is that it’s across the street in the big building.” I said we hadn’t seen it there! She said, “It’s in the archives as a work of cultural importance. Fitzgerald is in there and so are you!” She also said that Iz would be there “in perpetuity.” You could have knocked me right over. It was so kind of her to tell me about that. I am incredibly humbled and grateful. ❤️

Our Story

Common Deer Press seeks to expand the mind of readers through uncommon and exceptionally well-written literature.

At Common Deer Press, we believe that books are magical. Black ink on plain white paper can cause you to cry, laugh, sigh, get angry, anxious, nervous. Fall in love. Inspire wonder. They can transport you to far off lands---places you’ve never been to. Even other worlds. They can make you think seriously about things you’d never even considered before. Time travel exists, my friends. We do it every time we open a book. The teleport machine was invented centuries ago when the first caveperson made the first marks in the stone and someone else saw them and imagined something.

Our vision is to publish books that are so beautifully written they border on art. We strive to to be both publishing partners and a caring people to our community of authors. We are willing to take smart risks and think outside of the box--unless the box is the innovation. We will bring exceptional books to the reader via imaginative marketing efforts.
