Thanks! A checklist is exactly it, now! ...Caryn, <br />Thanks! A checklist is exactly it, now! This started as such an amorphous idea centered around one character. Now, finally it has evolved enough that even though it still needs a LOT of work, I can see where the work needs to be done and what I have to do. Even if this is a book/"house" that I never sell, I've invested too much not to see it through!LoryKChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08160339071841599529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13505255.post-4026788258354683792012-09-30T00:02:16.993-04:002012-09-30T00:02:16.993-04:00I LOVE this analogy!

By the time they've made all the changes they want to make and it's time to move on, they've become so attached to their houses that they don't want to leave, so they just make their old house even nicer. There's something very satisfying about a fixer-upper, isn't there? When you can see what your improvements are doing to it, and you have a whole checklist to work on so you know exactly what you need to do next.<br /><br />No matter which house/book you end up working on, I wish you the best with it - and I do hope it ends up published one day!Caryn Caldwellhttp://www.caryncaldwell.comnoreply@blogger.com
