A *very* short novella at the top end.<br /><br />But, okay. I shall freely write--and stall--for a bit before revisiting the good one and hitting send. No pterodactyls, though. I'm thinking more along the lines of a clockwork archaeopteryx.John Lucas Hargishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18195767597604681574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3349220550249399644.post-50519535903317031352012-10-26T12:01:49.137-04:002012-10-26T12:01:49.137-04:00Thanks for the comments everyone!

It's what I did with the manuscript I recently found an agent with (through wonderful CAGI) so I know it works:) The MS was last year's NaNo. I revised like mad (I'm a pantser) and then set it aside for 2 months and wrote a new novel-totally different genre- then I came back to my NaNo and revised like mad and it is SO much better. <br />My writing plan is to always have a messy draft to come back too-I love the freedom of not thinking about the rules or anyone else and just writing. It is fun and voice finding and everything else that we need. <br /><br />Thanks Tamara!Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462486350293703991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3349220550249399644.post-77614309415076189052012-10-20T15:13:52.087-04:002012-10-20T15:13:52.087-04:00AH that's so intense but such good advice - I ...AH that's so intense but such good advice - I totally hear you on finally just writing a manuscript that YOU want to write rather than what you think you should write....and finding your voice and groove!!
