It's been a long time since I've felt compelled to turn off the radio in the car so I can work through the next scene in silence. <br /><br />Wrote over 1,000 words so far today. I'm rather glad this got shoved back in my face by an editor so I felt compelled to rip it up and write it better. I'm thinking most of the last half is going to be new material.Jean Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02047709505502621618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4955548665653773708.post-32288731536543656622011-04-16T17:15:42.854-04:002011-04-16T17:15:42.854-04:00I'm envious.

I'm having a blast. In fact, I've totally avoided work for several hours today in favor of writing. Probably not a good thing, but I've cranked out 1,200 words of shiny new scene so far today, and I love the direction it's going.Jean Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02047709505502621618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4955548665653773708.post-22523086408399741422011-04-14T09:04:26.049-04:002011-04-14T09:04:26.049-04:00I envy you.

What a joy ...I envy you. I'm in editing hell. <br /><br />What a joy it is when that bolt of clarity hits the mind and you discover a way to make the plot better. Congrats.

Also it keeps me from getting lost in the middle. Armed with a character sheet (leftovers from D&D days) and a soundtrack, I'm ready to roll...after coffee.K. A.
