He won.

Victory is his. My internal editor won. He wouldn't/couldn't let me go any further on the current MESS that is my WIP. I printed it off over the weekend and began fiddling. Not a line/word edit, but a context edit. I'm writing this one by scene (riding my mood, people!) rather than a linear "In the beginning.... Amen" fashion, which is adding to the confusion.
Unofficial Poll: Do you write your stories in order from beginning to end, start to finish?? Or do you write the integral scenes - first meeting, black moment, sexual encounters - and then tie them all together?

Wonder why my inner critic is a male? Mainly because I want to the be only one in this house who can be called a perfectionist bitch ;0
Meanwhile, my IE is a slave-driving, impossible-to-please bastard.
Get it?

It's so good to have Red back! And Robin, and Maureen, Robyn (who did a fab job with updates and pics) from Nationals. Welcome home ladies, you were missed. Leah - we're still waiting for you.

Go over to Rhian's and check out all the hot new releases. And don't forget - Christine's book debut's in 4 short days (woo-hoo!).

NEW BLOG LAUNCH THIS WEEK! There's a new blog launching this week. You won't want to miss it (trust me!) -- More on this later.

Short post, (alas, no poetry AGAIN) but I've got two goals today:
Butt-chair.
Nose-grindstone.
