Oh, the lessons learned in writing The Hushing Days! Thought I’d share
a few over the next little bit. Pick and choose those you think are helpful.
Dispose of the rest inelegantly if you like.
Up first, The Tubbing Caution…
Never drag out writing a book
over an entire year. I don’t care how long the book must be, how complicated
the plot must appear or how historically accurate it must at first glance seem.
Ten months, I believe, is a reasonable limit. Any time longer and the bathwater
has cooled, the bubbles have died and a shiver has taken up residence in your
spine.
(Oh, don’t worry. I won’t curse you with these every day. Just a spot
of fun I can fall back upon when the old writing well runs dry.)
Until tomorrow…
Chloe
