red wine for La Guillotine

mizufae replied to your post: I have discovered that second drafts are 9385195 times harder to write than first drafts.

this is why we have editors and betas, dear.

I know, but I don’t have either of those, so it’s basically just me and a 50,000+ word manuscript that I wrote in a little over a month.

Which means a lot of filler plot points that I’m going to have to go through and change to actual plot points.

And hastily-written scenes that need to be basically scrapped.

And awkward dialogue that needs to be rewritten so that it reads more like how normal people speak.
