Books -- reading and writing.
Home, cooking, the weather.
And whatever connections I can make between these chapters of my life.

Revision Time

Trudging up revision mountain, I discovered a quote which bears remembering:


"No matter how good the writing, if it does not further the intention or progression of the work, it must be cut..."


(The First Five Pages: A Writer's Guide to Staying Out of the Rejection Pile by Noah Lukeman.)
