Gahhgh! Flabelagook! Pfftttttttt…

I hate drafting.*sigh* Actually I do love it too… I'm sitting here with my best scrunched upface, lips twisted as I scowl at the computer screen while I attempt to hackout the first draft of Feel the Burn.Does writing anovel ever get easier?NO!The only thingthat improves is that you know you CAN do it, because you've (in my case) doneit twice before.But right at themoment I don't care (and that is wailed in a long, drawn out breath andfinished with a damn good pout and crossed arms). I want thisgod-awful-freaking-horrible first draft DONE AND DUSTED!Seriously, evenyou die hard fans of the BirthRight Trilogy wouldn't want to read the currentmess of a manuscript. It's just SO wrong!And therein liesthe major issue I have with first drafts.They are awful.You are not tofix them until they are done.This means youhave to keep re-reading their awfulness while a big knot of frustrationdevelops between your shoulder blades and you have the irrational desire tohurl your computer out the window and run screaming manically from the room.*sigh*Such is the joyof writing ;pOf course, oncethis part is done and I get to fully re-write it, I'll love it! For about aweek. Then this will be a 'rinse & repeat' process until the final gleamingproduct. Ahh, such fun - why did I start with this crackbrained hobby ofwriting?? Oh right.Because I loveit. *hee*Take care all!Nic The Arrival, available for free right here on this blog!Awakeningon Amazon or UKAmazon or in Epub format right here on my blog (the bright yellow buttonson left!)
