"It's an adrenaline surge rushing through your body. You have this spark of an idea that keeps threatening to burst into flames and you have to get the words out on paper to match this emotion or picture in your head. After this comes the work of cleaning up the mess that you made." --Janet WestOh. My. Gosh. She descibes the process completely, no?

Haha, that's a good one! Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteJanet definitely knew what she was talking about. I've seen so much discussion online lately about letting the first draft fly, and then going back to heed "the rules." Love it!

ReplyDeleteWow! That's got me motivated :-D
