My name is Lara. I’ve decided to write a novel that's been in me for quite some time. To do this, I’ve switched from a full-time career in new media to freelance work. I’m writing every single day. I’m stepping outside my comfort zone. This is my process in becoming a writer. Wish me luck. |

Editing starts today. I can’t explain why, but I’m nervous to read it all from start to finish. Remembering what Hemingway said:
“The first draft of anything is shit.”

Notes"Among other things, you’ll find that you’re not the first person who was ever confused and frightened and even sickened by human behavior. You’re by no means alone on that score, you’ll be excited and stimulated to know. Many, many men have been just as troubled morally and spiritually as you are right now. Happily, some of them kept records of their troubles. You’ll learn from them—if you want to. Just as someday, if you have something to offer, someone will learn something from you. It’s a beautiful reciprocal arrangement. And it isn’t education. It’s history. It’s poetry."J. D. Salinger, Catcher In The Rye (via bookmania)
