Rewriting isn't easy but may be necessary

Currently, I have two projects on the go, one of them being rewriting an entire novel. Why am I doing this? Well, for many reasons, but to sum it up: The manuscript sucks!

That's a really hard thing to say, but it's the truth. The manuscript I'm currently rewriting is the very first thing I ever wrote. I've changed it many times, but it still doesn't work. Since I wrote it though, I've connected with so many great authors, and learned so much from them and my fabulous editor for Celestial Seduction, Valerie Mann.

Taking everything I've learned, I'm keeping the major plot points, but rewriting EVERYTHING! And I LOVE the results.

How about you? Have you ever had to rewrite something? I'm not talking revisions here. I mean, a total rewrite. Was it hard? If you haven't done this, would you consider rewriting your manuscript?

All the best!
