Slapping may be required

I'm trawling through BTL again doing fine tuning etc and currently stuck on chapter 4. It's odd because as I'm going through it this time I'm noticing things that I didn't the last time. I guess that just shows that you could probably tweak forever but I think that this will be the final time that I go through the book in its entirity.
I have two other books in the planning stage and I have been thinking of one of them quite a lot recently and feel like I want to get on with it but I am determined to finish BTL first. I've told you all a dozen times about how I flit from one thing to another but I'm not going to do that this time. having said that though, I need to make sure that I don't rush through BTL just to get to the next one.
Patience was nevr my strong suit.
If I mention working on my other book before BTL is finished I want you all to give me a virtual slap.
On a different note, I heard that I sold a story today which is always good news. It was a story that I sent out in October of last year. I'm yet to hear anything positive about anything submitted this year.

I'm the same,GBW, I'm always flitting from one writing project to other. I just find if I stay working on one for too long I stop seeing my mistakes. When I go back I have a fresh eye and a clear mind so they jump out at me.

I'm pleased with what I've done this weekend. I just sent a story off to PF... I'll saying no more.

Have a great day, GBW

Thanks Amanda, it is always a boost to the sapping confidence when that happens.

Good luck with the PF story Annie, I hope that they actually have yours long enough to read.
