Gearing up for the new writers conference in April. Revise, revise, revise. Still not working? Chunk it. Start over. This is how I'm spending my writing time. Of course it takes years to become brave enough to just chunk your babies. But it is true in what we study in the craft, and I believe it was Hemingway who said, "First drafts are crap!" Forgive me if it was not Ernest but the is true. Sometimes it takes two or three rewrites to get it right, and then it still sucks a fat one. 
More great writers coming to this years shindig. I'm excited and sorry if this post is so short but my writing time is paper thin.
Later

Revise, revise, revise . . .
