I love the one I have and it is well worth having her.<BR/>I feel normal again.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18223593384412438527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4298903339195017942.post-44034488708488196082008-09-02T13:56:00.000-07:002008-09-02T13:56:00.000-07:00Ummm...that's what Vegas is for.

It was seriously broken; limbs hanging and everything. It's really the best thing for it. Now I KNOW how it should be written. I just need to sit down and get it out (whenever the boy decides to take a nap, that is.

Any chance you could just write...Yeah, that hurts. Any chance you could just write to the end and then iron it flat?<BR/><BR/>When I talk about my ten books, I'm not counting the two that are almost entirely written, but snapped off at the climax. I experienced a similar realization about each of these books, and rather than fixing them, I moved on to other projects, leaving a pair of broken bleeding nubs sticking out in my wake.<BR/><BR/>Objectively, I feel like this was lazy and stupid.<BR/><BR/>Do what you gotta do, heels-lady.Ray Veenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11956279552298172157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4298903339195017942.post-31521047544267459892008-09-01T07:36:00.000-07:002008-09-01T07:36:00.000-07:00I am so sorry.I know how it feels to hit delete on...I am so sorry.<BR/>I know how it feels to hit delete on that much work.<BR/>But I also know that the new edition will come with more ease, like you've greased it up with ky.<BR/><BR/>I think we are in parallel universes. I too just deleted much of my WIP cuz it sucked. Disjointed, and not fun. I had all intention to correct it, but instead, I've put it aside to perculate and I've started something fun and hairy with sharp teeth.<BR/><BR/>Be well my java chugging friend.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18223593384412438527noreply@blogger.com
