Notes of a Scribbler

Egads!

Posted in writing, writing update by sputnitsa on June 6, 2011

It’s been a while, which I regret.

I’ve been very busily working on my two novels-in-progress.  In recent months I’ve been focusing almost exclusively on my first book.  I’m working on the second draft and discovering for myself the difference between writing and re-writing.

The book is so different right now.  It feels great.  :)  The story is the same, but ingredients are being stirred and prodded and various filaments drawn out and spiked–and suddenly the tale is told differently.  I also feel that my voice comes out in this version…which is great.

I’m enjoying the rewrite.

And I reckon I’m going to do a bit of a revamp on the blog–update my links, etc.  Fun times :)

How’s everyone else doing?

        Great! Not too much on the writing front, but life’s been pretty good.

    Just stopping in to say hi. Congrats on draft two! Definitely, writing and rewriting are two different animals. But — animals that are friends. : )

    Hope you’re enjoying the weekend.

    (Love the John Lennon tribute photo!)

      Thankee! It’s nice to see you around–and I can’t wait to read your book! :)

      I’m loving re-writing, actually. More than I realized I would :)

      Happy days and happy trails!
