The Joy


Great weekend.
Fantastic weekend.
Stupendous weekend.
Why?
Because I got a ton of editing/writing done. And it felt terrific.
I've immersed myself so fully in my novel that even when I'm not sitting at the computer, I'm thinking about it. I've moved scenes, deleted others, gotten rid of entire paragraphs, and left some rather good ones.
I definitely felt the joy of writing this weekend.
Are you feeling the joy right now? If so, tell me about it. If not, you can share that, too.

  3. I finished chapter 3 of my new WIP and I'm rather pleased. Once I get over that hump, I tend to pick up my writing speed. The boring stuff is over now its on to the action.

  4. Yay for you Melissa! It's great when the story and characters stay with you, isn't it? To me it's the best reason for writing regularly. When I break from writing, it's hard to get back into the story.
