And thank you for reading about the messy middle bits. I hope you find a breakthrough on your own work. Good luck!

Link is over on the right. In fact, there are lots of links over there I doubt many people click.

Are you sure you want to commit to having the words “the” “and” and “of” in the title (and there is just no way to write that and have it sound grammatically correct…)? That’s a big step! =)

All kidding aside, I definitely empathize. I started my novel (which I am currently boycotting and throwing fits about continuing) and had this grand idea for the awesome message behind it – and it’s turned into something completely different. Weird how as a deity of a story, in control of every word and happening, sometimes your characters just take control.

I look forward to the final process, and thanks for sharing some of the messy middle bits with us!

I can’t even imagine how difficult writing a book would be – you are doing great Charlie!

It’s intrguing so far, I hope it comes to fruition! I’ve always wanted to publish a book – I’ve started writing 2 stories but one of them is little more than a few paragraphs and the other is 10-11 pages and I’m at a point where I can end it and make it a short story or continue it for a novel. But I don’t know what to do with it…

Regardless, I’ve experienced the same issue, everytime I re-read it I re-write it. It’s annoying and eventually I got bored of it…
