Working it out. Revisions


Revisions. I love revisions, no really I do I think they are great. I know many writers who hate this part but I love this way more than just blank white pages. Doing revisions is where you get to really add the depth and detail you generally are missing from a spew manuscript. Everyone starts with a spew, this is the version you first spit out then leave in the back corner of a closest for a while, let it simmer enough so you can forget some of what you have written. When it has fermented enough you get to go back and polish and turn it into something magnificent. I am now on round two of revisions of my manuscript but I won't start till Monday. I still need at least one more day away from it then back to the grind. I have a deadline you know and you don't ever want to miss those!
