Inspired by @authorbriannaremus , I had my second draft printed at Office Max! 364 pages was only $35 AND they did curbside pick up! The spiral binding has been super convenient. ⁣ Fun Tip: I read that changing the font of your draft when you print can help give you fresh eyes! ⁣ I just finished reading ch. 30/36, so I should finish today. As I read, I’ve been recording French scenes in a big spreadsheet and questions/concerns/to-dos on sticky notes. I then organize the sticky notes into major categories (plot, character, world building, etc). Picture to come of my hilariously covered office walls.... ⁣ I’m going back and forth between feeling ULTRA pumped to get to work changing A LOT and MAJORLY OVERWHELMED, hah. ⁣ How do you stay focused and positive through revisions? ⁣ I’m realizing I want to rewrite a good chunk... mostly the front end... just praying I can get this round of rewrites out in record time to stay on track. PS—this is a working title.... the potential title list continues to grow, haha. Wishing you well on whatever you’re tackling today! You got this, friend! ⁣ ⭑ ⭑ ⭑ #writersofig #writerslife #writer #writersofinstagram #amwriting #amwritingya #amwritingfantasy #amwritingsciencefiction #amwritingscifi #scifiwriter #yascifi #yawriter #yawritersofinstagram #yawritingcommunity #pitchwars #pitchwarsprep #pitchwars2020 #wip #writersroutine #writingcommunity #writing #amwritingya

Revisions can be super hard! You just have to keep going but pace yourself. You don’t want to burn yourself out.
