I have something to make my fellow writers smile.
It’s so funny that every time I think about it, mild hysteria takes over. I laugh so much my stomach muscles are sore and my cheeks wet.
Are you ready?
Last month I thought, whispers, editing a manuscript after a first draft would be a quick process.
I told you it was good.
If I can’t get published, maybe I’ll try standup.

Hahahaha! Good one! π
Nothing simple about writing a book ha! Keep going it will be amazing. x

Thanks Karen. It’s certainly more challenging than my non fiction stuff.
Unless it doesn’t make sense, remember that in time to come it may sound better than you think.
Thanks Peter. It’s just ironing out the small details, it’s more time consuming than I thought it would be.
Don’t write to get published because it won’t be true, but if you believe in your writing, you may want to get a professional reader to give their assessment, as long as you get someone good.
Absolutely – nothing to it…it’s just like shelling peas – with two broken thumbs π
Haha I like that image Lyn π
You. Are. Funny!
Hilarious, sigh.
Most of the time, all those edits–plural here–take me more time than writing the first draft. And it seems as if no matter how many changes (from plot to specific word choice) I make, I always see something I think I can improve upon. It never ends… lol
Wow. I’ve enjoyed it today, now I’ve got over the shock!
I actually like the revising and editing part better than writing the first draft. Seems like the pressure is off once “the end” has been reached. Now time for the cleanup crew…er…woman to come in and pretty things up.
