First Draft
I’ve finished the first draft of the sequel to Feather Brain. I set it aside for a few days and then read it right through. When I finished, I thought, “Well, it’s not trash.” That was a good response – I’d feared much worse.
I don’t know if other jobs involve this degree of self-doubt. I do know it’s common for writers – an inability to judge the merit of our own work, and the need for a little distance before assessing.
I’m starting to research a new project; I’ll alternate between research and editing as inspiration takes me.
