Yeah, I Worked on Writing on a Sunday.
Feb. 6th, 2006 01:26 pmYesterday's writing log:
Redmarking "The Unkindness of Ravens" - Oog. I already know that the beginning is going to have to be rewritten (because beginnings are always awkward and stilted) and the ending is going to have to be expanded (because I was laboring under the deadline-that-wasn't when I was writing it). I also slowly managed to overcome my conviction that if I hadn't redmarked a sentence, there was obviously something I was missing.
I finally said something along the lines of, "Thbbpppt!" Then I curled up in an armchair, put my feet on the radiator, and read a book until the evil, awful husband forced me to watch the Superbowl. I'm hoping to finish the redmarking process today--I've got until the end of the week, or next week at the latest, to mail "The Unkindness of Ravens" off.
