I can't write anything down or, as you said, it finalizes it, and then it's gone for me. But I probably spend a bit less time on that stage? Other than that, I'm a chunk writer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501611235905219648.post-29407442744373561742008-12-24T07:47:00.000-06:002008-12-24T07:47:00.000-06:00Hey Christa,Merry Christmas to you and your growin...Hey Christa,<BR/><BR/>Merry Christmas to you and your growing family! :)Marian Pererahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15700524210146863718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501611235905219648.post-31961541952453260212008-12-23T13:39:00.000-06:002008-12-23T13:39:00.000-06:00I'm a tried-and-true post-it write.

So the next one will be plotted, outlined, and kept on a short leash. The characters can play for a while but they have to come in for dinner and go to bed. There will be boundaries!! Never want to go through that again!<BR/><BR/>Have a great holiday, Christa!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501611235905219648.post-17562347465689045212008-12-23T11:34:00.000-06:002008-12-23T11:34:00.000-06:00I think I'm a little of all those types.
