No writing, no business

With the demise of Suite 101 as we once knew it, I had no reason to keep up the articles.
What do I know of business anyway?
I know how to query, how to sell, how to write but....
it may be biological clocks ticking. I just felt the time had come to follow a dream for the next couple of years.
Have been very remiss about money-making this year in the hope of completing and publishing my first novel.
Financially I have been helped (or is that hindered?) by having lots of teaching work offered for this year and next.
Somehow I just could not summon up the energy to follow up my writing leads as well.
Better luck from now on, I hope.
This, I hasten to add, is not my first attempt at writing a romance novel.
I have already three efforts under my belt which I may revisit one day.
The problem has been knowing where to start when it comes to the editing.
The Chris Baty advice in No Plot , No Problem is
Rewrite the Whole Thing.
I'm sure he is right.
However I am just finishing first draft, have two months to go before submission --do I have time?
The second problem was wobbling between genres. The romance novel has certain requisites which I had to meld to my story which started as a cozy mystery.
Now I may have too much plot --time will tell.
