The reason I wait is so that I can write an holistic end scene. Once in a great long while I get something that means tweaking an earlier scene, but that's rare. Good question, Jenny.

Or do you need to fix the threads first so that you know exactly how to end it?

And then the bug hits me again and off I go trying to find that perfection in the first word of the first draft. I am trying to do better but it isn't easy that is why I love it when Barbara lets us in on her thought process and how she goes about the difficult but so much fun world of writing.

Thanks for telling me that. I seem to be surrounded by people who do clean first or second drafts. Not me! Thanks for the good thoughts, everybody. I got my new child off to school again. I'm sure I've forgotten something, but there are still edits ahead to pick up dropped stitches. Thank God, Robin! Thanks for telling me that.

I think I get stuck in my own perfectionism insanity and forget about the amount of necessary work that must go into a book. I love reading about your process too.

Much luck. This will be one book I'll try to be patient to wait for. Another keeper, a few more recipes to entice the boy, or myself, into trying and knowing after finishing it, there will be a darn now I have to wait again for a new one feeling. I love an author that does that to me. ;) Enjoy your walk. Luck! Much luck.
