Pray for my buddy, Gina Holmes, she travelled to Ohio yesterady, to be with her mom, as her grandmother will be taken off life support. Today's tip comes from Gina's Novel Journey Blog from her interview with author
Alton Gansky. Check there this month, as I will be writing about how to write book reviews with a Christian point of view.
Gina: Whats the worst piece of writing advice youve ever heard?
Alton: A good writer doesnt need to rewrite. The ancient Greeks had a word for that kind of advice
baloney.
I agree.So I'm driving under the influence of Tylenol to Taste of Hong Kong, to pick up my chicken soup(it's the only thing that relieves my chest congestion) and Blockbuster for a movie for my little nurse, Selah to watch. No Carnival today. And write five questions for my Angela Benson interview, read a chapter of Stacy Hawkins Adams second novel, and oh yes...complete my revision of my novel. Of course there will be plenty of sleeping and sneezing between all that, but I'm about to head to my fuzzy red comfy couch once I return from my fresh air excursion. Fresh air helps my flu, too. It's 60+ degrees down here and sunny.
OT: I want to do a serialized novel starting next year, but I want to do it with other writers, anyone game?
Have you checked our poll? How many times do you rewrite?
