Another older one finally quilted. This center pattern is titled Omigosh. For good reason, I think. Thousands of pieces in there and it's only 46 inches square. . Made during a very frustrating time writing a (then) current novel. The joke is: I quilt when I get frustrated with my writing. The more frustrated I am, the smaller the pieces. . . . . . #scrapquilt #quilt #scrappy #rewritingnovel https://www.instagram.com/p/CBlIY4ihcAI/?igshid=qj0mf1ww9odh

Yes! I agree completely. And secrets. Every character has secrets. . . . . . . #amrewriting #rewritingnovel #amediting #editingnovel #novelediting #writer #writinglife #author #writerquotes #writinganovel #writing #write #writingcommunity (at Grand Falls, New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAa1V71hhwc/?igshid=2lsv7ru3l1j0

Is this along the same lines as 'kill your darlings'? . Doing this with some of my scenes just now. Makes more yellow (notes of things to fix) added to my outline though. But the story will be all the better for it. . . . . . . #amrewriting #rewritingnovel #amediting #editingnovel #novelediting #novelsetinstlouis #mysterywriter #mystery #fictionwriter #onthesly #edit #wendylkoenig #wlkoenig #author #writer #koenig (at Grand Falls, New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAVmWA_Bk2Y/?igshid=1co1itf4gflzh

So, now I'm stuck in a quandry. I know the genre of the manuscript I'm currently editing has certain tropes, but I just don't feel they're right for my story and style of writing. Ugh! . . . . . #amrewriting #rewritingnovel #writinganovel #mysterywriter #mystery #fictionwriter #amediting #editingnovel #novelediting (at Grand Falls, New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_-W_vUBmt_/?igshid=1fz32c3loa5ig

As always, when changes are made to the end of a mystery, more yellow is added to the beginning. 🤨 . . . . . #amrewriting #rewritingnovel #novelsetinstlouis #mysterywriter #mystery (at Grand Falls, New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_25mIaBBwJ/?igshid=iuewacwos33x

My first drafts are totl garbage, but little by little they get worked into decent pieces. . . . . . . . #amrewriting #rewritingnovel (at Grand Falls, New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_Q0yzhJFJb/?igshid=ab1ggdsxrjdy
