bluecastleConcrit is good... concrit is good...
... and it is good... but frustrating, as just when I am sure I am done with my story, save a few proofreading edits, I get the bright idea to run my story about two pretty boys past an actual pretty boy... who ends up giving me a suggestion that will make my story stronger, but which means I have more writing to do.
so back to the drawing board to exorcise a few emo demons... but since it's in the service of improving my work I guess I can't complain too much!
how do people write those 70,000 word epics? I've been more than a month on something that will come in around 3500 words.
but enough writing about writing... must go and actually write!
