shai's foray into rewrite hell #4,565,932

[words_unravel]

not that y'all care, i know, but this is how half my writing goes:

-put words on paper, sometimes complete sentences, usually extremely simple

-rewrite, expand simple sentences into crappier longer sentences

-self beta, changes sentences structure, paragraph structure, makes a billion notes in the margins

-rewrite, change everything from the beta read through

-self beta again, another billion notes in the margins, decides to go back to the first way again

-rewrite, changes everything AGAIN


yeah, ugh. seriously you guys, i have at least 4 separate print-out rewrites on paper alone. THIS ONE, ON THE COMPUTER, IS THE LAST I SWEAR. one of these days this thing will actually go to beta *siiiiigh* but at least i'm working on it again.

it's just funny because the other half the time, this shit doesn't happen and i like what i completely wrote out the first time. idgit :(

oh yeah, spoiler for snippet if you care, btw. and all my WIPs, lol.




so i may be a bit anal retentive, i think...
