Dear Hildie:

I feel, having completed a first draft (even if it’s a stinker) that a huge weight is off me. Now I can put my mind to figuring what’s wrong with it and retooling it for the next draft, even if it means a complete rewrite. I just never have been able to sit down and write from GO and end up with something that only needs a little touching up. I can’t work from an outline. At least, when I do, the outcome has little to do with the outline I started with.

 

 

Take care.

 

Love,

M
