I'm putting it off. I know. I know. It's not healthy. It's not right. And I should just suck it up and DO IT!
That's right. I'm talking about cutting out the paranormal parts of my book set. *SIGH*
It's just so damn hard. I've NEVER cut that much of a story. So, I'm avoiding it like the plague. I am weak, I tell ya. Weak.
But then...my lovely CP told me to think about giving the paranormal parts a book of their own. Did I tell ya I just adore her? I do. She's sharp. And funny. And thank God we're doing all right. *grins*
What am I working on?
I'm working on an erotic romance short story for another anthology. Whiskey Creek Press Torrid line will be putting one out every season next year. That story is not in the least bit pressing compared to everything else I have on my plate. Plus I'm already 2000 words in, and I know what I have going on. There's at least two more contemporaries that I'm playing with. One already has 20,000 words. I need to buckle down and do something!
Okay. Okay. *breathing* I need to be strong. I need to get the job done. And I will.
Tomorrow.

CP sounds like she has a great idea there! The best of both words.
Now go sharpen that machete, hon.
Oh, I feel your pain - I hate to cut anything out. I've begun a folder filled with files of cut scenes.
Good luck!
My last round of revisions I started a NEW file of stuff I cut out...chunks. It was over 70 pages long. OMG that hurt.
You can do it though! Just knowing it could have a life of its own will help! :)
You make me jittery with all your projects at once. *g*
Good luck with the cutting! I don't envy you at all.
Oh, I know how you feel. I was told to eliminate the first chapter of my latest WIP, and I could cry. I was like, "it's my best stuff in there." I'm thinking of using it in another vampire romance.
Your CP sounds like a great one! Good luck with the story for Whiskey Creek Torrid!
Oh, that's a great idea, using the cut out paranormal parts as a start to a new story!!!
YES! I've made the executive decision to heed my CP's words. Sharp, that one.
Kel, LMAO, why in the hell would I block, flame, ban you? Oh hell. You're killing me.
If I didn't agree with the advice, I wouldn't follow it.
