Quibbling...

A process note:
That scene I scribbled out in the outline? Then said I would probably put it back in?

I wrote it, took it out and saved it elsewhere, and just now stuck it back in.

Indecision....a normal part of the process for me.

Ha! I'm doing the exact same thing right now, except that I'm stealing something from my very first draft...

It's really fun when your editor says take it out, then tells you to put it back in, then her boss comes along and says take it out. Oh yes it is!

Seems that that's part of the creative process.

Now you read it, now ya don't!

What I hate is when I've cut something out, gone through multiple drafts, and realized at the end of it all that I've written back in something almost identical to what I cut out originally. Boo!
