It's where - after I get over the horror of what I find when I re-read the first draft - I start to make a book with a great story.

If we were in the same room I'd pull faces at you!!!!<BR/><BR/>But funny, I adore getting to rewrite. I find it so exciting to see the story laid out in its skeletal form, figuring out oh yes!
