Isn't that what getting older is for, so you have somewhere to lay blame?

Whoever wins, I know I will enjoy the product of all your hard work. So here's to both of you.

Oh, this is no contest! Karen’s book is shorter and she writes a better first draft than I do, and works faster too! I blame my age. I blame everything on age these days. Works for me!

I don’t care who wins, I just want to read the end results, so come on you girls, I’m rooting for you.

And it's Larke and Miller, neck and neck as they turn into the straight...

Keep up the good work, ladies! (Rubs hands in anticipation.)

Actually, I do love doing the second draft, truly. It’s where – after I get over the horror of what I find when I re-read the first draft – I start to make a book with a great story. And that is SUCH a relief.

I shouldn't giggle, but ... *g* Truly, you are so hard on yourself. If we were in the same room I'd pull faces at you!!!!

But funny, I adore getting to rewrite. I find it so exciting to see the story laid out in its skeletal form, figuring out oh yes! This is what I was trying to say! And then saying it better. Compared to the agony of conjuring the first draft out of thin air, it's bliss!

And I'm second drafing now too, so we can have another race! *g* Go you!
