And ...I know where a lot of my day goes, Deb - TV. And reading. And reading while watching TV. ;o) I hear that on the editing. When I catch myself in read-only mode, I make myself walk away and try again later. Or sometimes, I change the font so it shakes my brain up a little. I write in TNR 12 pt, so changing it to Courier and 14 or some other font helps. <br /><br />The fast writing thing comes from working as a secretary, probably. The brain isn't that fast, but when the ideas are there, the fingers can really get the words out. (But if you asked me to take a typing test, I fail miserably. LOL)B.E.

Sigh. Editing wears me out after a couple of hours, so I fumble into read-only mode without meaning to. Then I have to figure out where my brain gave out. <br /><br />But you write a WHOLE lot faster than I do. I'm lucky to manage 500 words an hour. I really need to speed my brain -- and fingers -- up to your level.Deb Salisbury, Magic Seeker and Mantua-Makerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01513482264195697450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-173702747791230686.post-59693824883885846922014-12-15T14:55:45.405-06:002014-12-15T14:55:45.405-06:00You just had to go there, didn't you? :-P Ah, ...You just had to go there, didn't you? :-P Ah, well. <br /><br />I like the publishing schedule. I think it's very doable for you. And fingers crossed on Baen. I want to see Jo's story published!Silver Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15606837105470988646noreply@blogger.com
