But, that does mean I can go back through and keep what I want, and dump what doesn't work. Congrats on the NaNo. Everyone did great and I am so glad we had such a good turn out!Wendy Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13900244263712010038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-31350804776070934262011-12-01T20:25:25.892-05:002011-12-01T20:25:25.892-05:00I LOVE your header.

...Congrats!! :) I survived nano successfully too! <br /><br />I haven't added a word of description either - and even with 50k, I'm only about half way done the story line. Still a lot of work ahead! :)Jemi Fraserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02214408467456320167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-28078178180585569032011-11-30T20:20:26.913-05:002011-11-30T20:20:26.913-05:00Hey Deniz.

I don't know about going back to put in dialogue tags.I need to know if half the dialogue's really necessary. I got over 50K written so am happy although so much rewriting to do.<br /><br />Interesting that Talli's book's in present tense. I read that young-uns like present tense, first person. I like to write like that but am always told readers don't like it. Well...I've got Build a Man on my huge TBR list. I've no probs reading a ton of print books but still don't have a dedicated kindle so it's either pdf or sit up at the computer, urgh! I've been dithering about what to buy and you still can't get Kindle Fire in Oz, grr.<br /><br />Just a reminder that RomanticFridayWriter kicks off again this FRiday if perchance you need some writing practise, hoot, hoot. I'm pretty excited to get something done for the house in the snow and to read everybody else's stories/poems. <br /><br />http://romanticfridaywriters.blogspot.com<br /><br />There's been some excellent guest posts over the hiatus. Linky's up now.<br /><br />DeniseDenise Covey https://www.blogger.com/profile/07106490051555233439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-11020331150823799442011-11-30T18:30:08.627-05:002011-11-30T18:30:08.627-05:00Congratulations! :)Congratulations! :)Golden Eaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08721520451194318436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-59550307700086298372011-11-30T14:33:53.425-05:002011-11-30T14:33:53.425-05:00My drafts always come out too short, with too much...My drafts always come out too short, with too much of dumb stuff and not enough good stuff.

You must feel ...Yay, Deniz! You made it! Congrats!<br /><br />You must feel so relieved.
