Looking back, I can recall thinking *the exact same thing* about 4 other manuscripts before this -- one of which is now a published book.<br /><br />"This stinks" is apparently a regular stop of my journey. Thanks for reminding me to be brave enough to keep climbing anyway!Dianne K.

It's amazing how the writing process is different for everyone. <br /><br />A friend of mine is working on her first draft, but she's also editing it at the same time and sending it out to her crit group. I can't do that. Even though I outline first, I still perfer to edit several drafts first before anyone sees it. And I only edit after I finish the first draft. <br /><br /><br />Brainstorming on the phone. Wow, can't imagine doing that. It means I'm not listenng to the other person. But I love to brainstorm and run. :)Stinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11415189347501942340noreply@blogger.com
