Hi Jennifer :)

By knowing that the book really is crafted in the coming drafts. I think it was Hemingway that said every first draft is utter garbage. The trick is layering and sprinkling in the fixes in future drafts. My books don't get good until about draft 3. So that first feeling of "utter crap" is just you telling yourself which parts need fixing. Pay attention to those feelings. Take notes. Fix on the drafts until you're like, "Okay this is great."

Back when I was green behind the ears, I once said to a certain author, "Hey, I'm thinking about writing a book." He snorts, looks me dead in the eyes, and says, "Oh, yeah, kid? Well 99% of people TALK about writing a book, but only 1% finish." I sti See Full Answer

“I've never fooled anyone. I've let people fool themselves. They didn't bother to find out who and what I was. Instead they would invent a character for me. I wouldn't argue with them. They were obviously loving somebody I wasn't.”
Marilyn Monroe

“The trouble is if you don’t spend your life yourself, other people spend it for you.”
Peter Shaffer, Five Finger Exercise

“Only the dead have seen the end of war.”
