Just write it down. Perfectionism is for rewrites and revisions. And nothing is ever perfect. We could spend 10 years on a single book and it would never be perfect. There is always something to change. Always. The book just has to be excellent, not perfect.Anne Gallagherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05816355522284492131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922561838307837931.post-72418092597108520602010-06-10T14:12:43.141-04:002010-06-10T14:12:43.141-04:00Funny, and thanks for the mention!

It was the act of writing it that I wanted to get through.<br /><br />Now, re-reading it ten years later, it's not bad!<br /><br />Don't forget who your worst critic is...
