For me, it's when I realize I've been watching women's golf for ten minutes instead of working on my writing. That's right. Women's. Golf. Puh-lease. <br /><br />If I don't stop, I end up deleting 95 pages worth of crap and starting over. Yeah, it's better to stop before that point.Elana Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05877856005992028912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4110160045151463659.post-81106705003943282142009-07-23T09:07:47.532-05:002009-07-23T09:07:47.532-05:00Funny!

I find that the really fun writing, when I am "in the groove" is the stuff I have to take out or rearrange when I edit. My stopping point are run onnnnnnnnns. When I find I am writing 45 "and then's" I know it's time to STOP.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09556206184198452490noreply@blogger.com
