Best Writing Advice Evar!

Diana Peterfreund weighs in on writing advice. I recommend reading it, just for the humor and for the goodiness of it all.

The money line of it all, "But the one rule is: don't follow advice that's not working for you."

Amen and hallelujah, sister, pass the ammo. It took me years to get that. "Second draft = first draft minus 10%" - yeah, doesn't work for me. Second draft = first draft minus 10% plus 25% is more like my rule.
