I still would like to finish doing a quick rewrite by the end of this month. *crosses fingers*Cherie Reichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16663147386014122939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8552707317670752823.post-32049733056949043582010-10-07T15:33:51.173-04:002010-10-07T15:33:51.173-04:00That's interesting that you feel the protagoni...That's interesting that you feel the protagonists pain more in first person. Edits are the hardest thing. I hate editing. Sometimes after you read it and give it back to me with comments, it seems easier, though.Aubriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884036126491922530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8552707317670752823.post-26305050358165974652010-10-05T19:58:20.027-04:002010-10-05T19:58:20.027-04:00Yeah, I do pretty well when grammar is concerned. ...Yeah, I do pretty well when grammar is concerned. I just have some other things I need to work on. For VIRTUOSO, I'm having to change it from third to first person, so it's really changing how the protag talks in the novel some. I like it, though. It feels more like the character, less like me. More authentic. <br /><br />And, yeah, totally gross! Romeo was a naughty kitty. Maybe the bath taught him not to run and leap without knowing what he's leaping into.Cherie Reichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16663147386014122939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8552707317670752823.post-47288630482117637602010-10-05T19:55:39.810-04:002010-10-05T19:55:39.810-04:00Editing is so hard, at least it is for me.

It's all a matter of figuring out your problem areas and smashing them to smithereens. lol Good luck with the editing!<br /><br />And that is definitely ewwww, jumping in the toilet. Definitely a great reason to give Romeo a bath!Nicole Zoltackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07464800543376449290noreply@blogger.com
