Writing Words - writing it is the only way of getting it written

Quote on Editing (4)

March 24th 2010 18:20
Reporting back from holiday with one of my favourite quotes about editing fiction:

There is a difference between a book of two hundred pages from the very beginning, and a book of two hundred pages which is the result of an original eight hundred pages. The six hundred are there. Only you don't see them. - Elie Wiesel

Hope all you brave NaNoEdMo participants are on track for clocking 50 hrs.
