It's been a while since I posted about my current WIP/Obsession. I've not gotten as much input as I wanted - but, a part of me does in fact recognize that my pace is not for everyone. I have decided however that I will not be posting the second version to my crit group. I've decided a lot of things about my crit group. Fact is, I probably glean more from doing critiques then I do receiving them. I get some great insight to be certain and I'm not detracting from those who've critted the first few chapters or those who might continue to crit the rest. I just - move at a very different pace and while I'll still post the occasional story or group of poems, I'm just not going to be quite as prolific in my posting. While I would certainly have loved to get the insight, especially in the last chapters, the endgame so to speak, I'm not going to put my muse on hold anymore. That being said, there's no reason now to wait until October first to begin the process of rewriting. I've got some other projects I'm working on right now too, so Thosha is not the be all and end all of my writing day as all those projects have deadlines. One essay that's been accepted I HAVE to get back to the editor soon after having rewritten it. I can't wait any longer to polish it, I want her to have time to go over it and see if there is anything she'd like me to change. A few stories I'm trying to put together for some deadlined anthos, poetry too for that matter. So, Thosha won't be the only thing I'm working on. I'll probably be making some time adjustments in my crit group too - sticking to just the 8/per month for the CC level 3 but not pushing so hard and hammering out 20+ per month anymore. I have a lot on my plate right now, and two kids too so - this is best for me. ~Sarah Tags: critting, impatient, writing
