Sometime I'd like to ask you more about your process and then pass it on here. <br />Thanks for stopping by.Joanne Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11019039952521739669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4086060608799640898.post-36287314732031171742013-08-06T02:29:08.458-04:002013-08-06T02:29:08.458-04:00I think I've heard someone say, "All writ...I think I've heard someone say, "All writing, is re-writing". I draw a lot and I often marvel at how fundamentally important revision is to a successful piece of art. Many times I don't quite know where a piece is going until I've started it.

I suspect writing well requires a similar process.Eric Scaleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12149591952925380521noreply@blogger.com
