. Childhood nickname: Librarian Girl. Fancy myself a matchmaker.
I read a "how to" book that said, for the first draft, you keep the 10% that is working and discard the other 90%. Yes, that’s NINETY PERCENT. Nine zero. Wow. I hone & edit. No way do I discard 90%. Am I doing this wrong?!

How much do you keep of your first draft?
Twitter is like being in a pitch black, packed arena, with everyone shouting ideas, jokes, questions and suggestions simultaneously. You try respond,to connect, but your voice is lost in the cacophony.
I read the first few lines of a book before buying it. Post the opening lines of yours and I'll provide honest, but kind, feedback on whether you've hooked me. Too shy to share? Offer your support with likes, or constructive comments. For those who've hooked me, share your links.

I used to work in a bookstore.
I heard this kind of thing a lot: "I'm looking for a book. It's red. The girl dies at the end."

I'd say I'm a Lawful Pantser. Except I definitely know the end and write towards it. I don't make plot outlines and only have a rough idea of character bios.
I'm totally curious. What's your style?

I'm revising my novel (yes, again) and every time I change the smallest thing, I have to work around the domino effects.
Anyone else dealing with this?

I've been on some TERRIBLE dates. Maybe I should write a book. There was the drug deal, knife guy, the time I was asked out while on a job interview... Tell me one of your worst dates and I'll share one of mine, until I run out of stories, or you run out of interest.

We are trying to pick wallpaper for our 1912 home that nods to the era of the house but doesn't take itself too seriously. This is for our front hall.
Which do you prefer?
