Maybe a month before we left? I forget. I started working on this edit as soon as all my computer issues were figured out, so it was probably two or three months in between. It was probably a blessing in disguise to leave it that long, because I could look at it with a fresh perspective.<br /><br />Wendy, Yes! I know who you're talking about. I actually follow her blog too (Archetype Writing Blog, right?), and I asked her for help with the inner workings of my anorexic character when I was just starting the first draft of this book. Very helpful! I originally thought my character had a major psychological disorder, but the Archetype psychologist helped me to make a proper diagnosis. Really cool.A.L.

It's such a fun idea. A woman with her degree helps writers to know more about how our characters would behave. I follow her but I'm forgetting her name. Might be fun for you to check out. :D<br />~ WendyWendy Paine Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15136235074351188350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7013340946541374911.post-4457587210010104082009-07-29T20:30:06.602-07:002009-07-29T20:30:06.602-07:00Amy, I know exactly how you feel.

I'm curious--how long did you let this WiP sit between the last thing you did (finishing the manuscript or another edit?) and this current edit?<br /><br />As for waiting, I wish you lots of strength and patience as you clear up the missing pieces and make this manuscript whole.<br /><br />I look forward to hearing what your crit group has to say, whether that is in the near future or not. :)<br /><br />Hope you're having a great week!Weronika Janczukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02578288655500573458noreply@blogger.com
