B/c ...I'm trying to remember when I heard that. B/c at this point in my life that sounds SO INTENSE, lol. <br /><br />Susan, keep your head up. I am so impressed that you are getting so much done on a regular basis. It's amazing. Great to see you posting again regularly. I will join in as well. I'm not doing as much regularly, but I am doing a little bit every day. <br /><br />I had an epiphany recently, and it's something I heard others say but it didn't make sense until I felt it: think of each chapter as an essay. Really. I was so overwhelmed it took me a year to write a rough draft of Chapter 1 (a rough draft I have yet to finish, but that's another story). But what helped me get through that first chapter was "think of this as an essay. It has a beginning, a middle, and an end." You can make the connections later. Now I'm moving onto Chapter 2, and I feel more confident about writing this one. <br /><br />Good luck, chica!literarychicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17429122166895693446noreply@blogger.com
