“Insert obligatory joke about how instead of reading articles about rewriting, you should be rewriting Zoe’s Tale.”
I knew someone would say that.
I actually wrote this entry last night, after I had hit my quota for the day. It just scheduled it to appear when it did. So HA.
Yeah, I too should be re-writing instead of reading about re-writing. But at a glance it seems like a very good read.
It was an excellent article, linked to it myself yesterday.
Saw that linked by Elizabeth Bear as well. Excellent read. A definite spur in the side, too, in terms of getting me in my chair and typing.
I’ve seen Elizabeth Bear write LJ entries about following that process, but I’d not seen ti codified before until she linked to it.
Ok, so I’m supposed to be this kind of pain?
Back to the grindstone.
Thanks for the link, John.
Oh crap! But I was having so much fun moving the chairs around!!!
Now I have to go an actually work ont it again… thanx. :\
Good link, painful yet unconfortable…
