I love it when I sit down thinking “Major re-write time” and then I look at what I have and think “Well, actually, I can keep that – it fits with my new plan, and ain’t all that bad.” and “I can keep that …” and “I can keep that …”. Yes, I am revising some stuff, but no longer am I so scared of it. This is kinda fun.
Oh, yeah … But, I also have to sit down and churn out that short I was planning. Right, knuckling down.

Ramblings from a Nerdy Mom
Write well. Write often. Edit wisely.
I love it when I sit down to edit and end up keeping a lot of my writing.
It’s a good feeling. Best of luck.
Thanks. The new outline I’ve come up with has me feeling pretty positive – once I answer a couple more questions.
I like what you say about no longer being afraid of the process. This fits in with how you approach your life as well as your writing. Cheers.
I guess it’s about facing things that need doing. They’re often not as scary as our minds can build them up to be.
