Day 7 NNWM I’m working on my anthology at the moment

I’m not quieting on

November’s Kiss but I am taking a break at least for today and working the anthology. Only due to the fact the ideas for the collection of stories are coming to me more and I want to finish it as well.

I am at my heart a short story writer or honestly I find writing short stories come at great pleasing fast pace. Writing a novel  on a computer is like trying to run a marathon when I think in the mode of sprinter. I want to get to the end but I have this one problem with writing on computer that is coming up a lot.

I’m editing as much as I’m writing on November’s Kiss at the same time. I know I shouldn’t be doing this for simple reason it slows down my writing but writing on computer all though a lot faster has the bad habit for me of trying to edit back over what I written to much.

Note: You should never edit as your writing the first draft just keep writing until it’s done. 

When I’m writing short it isn’t so much a grand problem only when I’m writing a novel does it slow me down a lot.

The artist in me prefers to

Write by hand. Carefully sewing

The words to form the landscaped world

That lives in my mind.

When I type I find the words

Come faster but my wonders and I see

My mistakes and I stall in place on that one

sentence some days for days. Wondering. How can I reword that idolog to sound better.

I’ll keep you posted.
