It was very nice of you (and the $20 is in the mail, as promised; another $10 if you mention me again within a week).<BR/><BR/>As for multiple projects: I try to only have one project I'm currently <I>writing</I>, but often have more than one project in the revision stage. Like you I would be driven mad by writing on more than one project. By writing one thing and revising something else later in the day I can use the different parts of my brain, and I keep my writing habit strong. When I finish with the first draft of one WIP I make sure the next day to hit the first word of the next WIP. The habit dries up too quickly if I don't.<BR/><BR/>But revisions, they are a monster. Those I work on, then put down and work on something else. Revision is where the WORK is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27889919.post-3188533626906415742007-03-06T09:46:00.000-07:002007-03-06T09:46:00.000-07:00Have fun!!

Otherwise I'm like Add-Girl, back and forth between too many things as the mood strikes.<BR/><BR/>And I would, eventually, like to finish stuff, 'cause I think that's typically the way the pubs BUY stuff, right? Finished!<BR/><BR/>I do have a writing schedule, though. And I know what you mean about revisions. I felt kinda shiftless there for a couple of weeks after I finished my last one.<BR/><BR/>I had to get back into the groove...Michelle Zinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08127978024081928639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27889919.post-77994949739780537822007-03-06T09:08:00.000-07:002007-03-06T09:08:00.000-07:00Aprilynne,I am beginning the second book in my ser...Aprilynne,<BR/>I am beginning the second book in my series today when I get home from work. I was going to begin a couple of a weeks ago, but a close family member went into the hospital and I got sick myself, so; it is quite difficult to write every day because life will eventually get in the way. This just gives me more reason to tarry on instead of finishing what I need to finish.Tyhitia Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14070000168178880911noreply@blogger.com
