She might be interested, but I can't ever be sure others will be. I have to write for her at first, and then, depending on feedback, figure out how to make it relatable to a wider audience.

That's when I start tossing grenades. Sometime metaphorical ones, sometimes real ones. ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17704845146768729518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7570512522741409033.post-70702181260005669752013-04-16T12:20:07.201-07:002013-04-16T12:20:07.201-07:00I hope your day got more productive!

Like you, I figure if I'm bored with my writing, it must REALLY be dull. That's how I write my first drafts. Write till I get bored with the scene, change scenes. Keep going for 400 hand-written pages, and somewhere in there must be a story.
