I failed to start a 2nd draft properly. Lori convinced me that the first draft was fine. So I'm back trying to tool that into something I can enjoy working on. No success yet."<BR/><BR/>Okay, serious response:<BR/><BR/>Give it some time, Pete. I took the sixth draft of my first novel and I'm breaking it into two separate books. I should be working on another WIP, but this just feels right to at this time.<BR/><BR/>This is where working on my jobs seems to help. During the boring, repetitive parts of my job I think about my writing. I read one chapter in the morning before I head out and turn it over in my mind during the day. Sometimes it helps, allowing me to churn out a new idea or ponder a plot point that might take a new direction. Sometimes it doesn't, but when it does I can't wait to get home and start expanding on those ideas.<BR/><BR/>Good luck on that story, Pete.Rllgthunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03769491908895214174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808983424669342446.post-71088655189214847122007-09-23T07:33:00.000-07:002007-09-23T07:33:00.000-07:00Pete said: "I love all of you."What else is in tha...Pete said: "I love all of you."<BR/><BR/>What else is in that tea?Rllgthunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03769491908895214174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808983424669342446.post-56291241170511790432007-09-23T06:32:00.000-07:002007-09-23T06:32:00.000-07:00I wondered if you all were ever going to blog agai...I wondered if you all were ever going to blog again. <BR/><BR/>No!
