The Asian Perspective in a wonderful tail. However if you think it needs changing that's your right as creator.
if you think you can make the changes without a full rewrite then more power to you. Sometimes it's harder but more rewarding to do so.
The way I judge if a work needs a re-write or not is to read it. Since i write for myself I am the one I need to entertain. If I'm not happy with only the odd sentence here and there i make those minor changes. but if too much of the novel has problems then I scrap the project and start over. In those instances keeping the old work around is more of a hindrance because you find yourself looking back on it too much and the new work just doesn't grow enough.
The three rules of being an author: Write, read, rewrite.
in my opinion, any improvements made will just be polishing the gem
I'm playing with 2 big changes, i.e. either 1 or the other, so once I've decided, I think I might just start from scratch and take any bits out of the first draft that I need and don't need to be scrapped.
Problem with me is I'm my own worst critic so it's going to take a lot for me to like it, and even then I'll not feel it's good enough. I'm awkward like that
And thanks =)
Lanny! *wabes*
The only time you will find real light is when you're searching in the dark..
being your own worst critic isn't a problem. it's how you grow and develop your skill and become a better writer. By constantly trying to weed out any flaws you find and creating something you can be proud of.
When I write I no longer settle for "that'll do" but instead I go for "I love it. That's great. Good stuff."
Only write for yourself. Remember that.
I've seen the great potential in you and know you're up to the challenge of mastering that ability.

Easy if you want away and forget about it you might think. she could do it while watching and stirring.

I've never had any major cooking disasters, really, I don't think.
I'm just not confident at all, so make the same things over and over.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
She's married now and from what i've heard from my aunt, her husband is no chef either.
one of them must be able to cook now
