I’m talkin’ words. Yesterday, after being in revision and edit land for the past two weeks, I finally finally wrote like a maniac. It was hard to start but once I got into it, man those words just flowed. And flowed and flowed and flowed.

On one of my writing loops someone started a discussion on Mechanics and Storytelling.  I’ll be honest and confess I haven’t been paying tons of attention to the discussion, but as they usually do, this one has evolved to people listing their pet peeves.  Lemme tell ya’ll something…I’ve never put a book down and said, “I”m never reading her again.  She incorrectly used blah blah word/sentence/phrase/whatever and no one caught it.”   :pirate:  Whatever……..
If you can tell me a good story and keep me entertained for a few hours, I’m your ho-girl  :cloud9: I can’t even think of a book I’ve read where I’ve caught mistakes.  You know why?  Cause even though being a reader and a writer can be hard, I still read to be entertained.  I still read for a good story.  I’m not looking for mistakes.  Mistakes happen.  The eyes that go over a manuscript time and time again….they’re all human.

With a nip tuck here
and a slice dice there
Here an injection
there a laser
Gotta be worse than a corrupt police taser
Lots of women get it done
Me I’m saying ow
