Have you ever ignored that still small inside that warned you not to do something? If you're human (or like me, addicted to chocolate) then I know you have! Then some time later, you are sure to wind up like me... bleary eyed and full of regret.
Regret can come from anything. Forget to send that Netflix DVD back? Well, now you have to wait through the WHOLE freaking weekend to get the next disc in True Blood Season 5. Eat a giant piece of chocolate cake at the birthday party when you said you weren't going to (anyone seeing a theme here)? Enjoy seeing the scale go up instead of down.
In my writerly world, I often regret wasting time. Whether it's not mapping out the story well enough before hand or figuring out half way through that I made a wrong turn with a character, I HATE having to go back and rewrite huge sections of book. I also regret it when I play around making my perfect playlist for writing to instead of actually writing.
Thankfully, my writing regrets are fading for the moment. I've got three, count them THREE chapters left for Zyander and Nikka's Part One. I also, surprisingly, added a chapter to Luka's Part One. Then I'm on to the second half of Terris! Exciting times, people, exciting times.
Happy Reading!
