I've written three novels, and hated them all too much to submit them... I wound up feeling like there was too much to ever fix and it was hopeless to try.

But I have three LOVELY stories in my head that I would very much like to write someday. This advice may come in very handy then...so thank you for it!

Why thank you. I appreciate it. I hope it's useful. :)
