Bookwise, this last week left me spinning.
I sent revisions on How to Fail at Flirting back to my editor. It’s so close to being done. It’s polished, it’s clean, it’s lovely, and I smile to myself when reading it. I sent my second book to a third round of reviews with critique partners. This book is well-crafted and my talented friends are catching things I’ll look at in editing, but also giving me feedback on what they love. And—whew!—they’re pointing out the same things I love. With Nanowrimo kicking off yesterday, I started book three…and it’s new and flawed and choppy and…a first draft. So, in honor of book three and in hopes it is one day polished, clean, and lovely. Here are the things I’ve learned about starting over.

First drafts are the most exciting to write, but they are also the hardest. It is hard to write something out of scratch, that if for sure. I think that people have no idea what writing is all about, so most of the people here do not know what I am talking about. If you are confident in your ability to write, then that is good, but, man, it is hard to write the first draft. I hope that you find success in writing that draft of yours.
