I cna't make myself restart quite yet. I mean, there's thecomfort in knowing that at least this time, I'll get it right--but God. Just knowing those pages are *there*....
"Etwas zu beginnen erfordert Mut, etwas zu beenden noch mehr." To start somethings requires a lot of bravery, to end something even more. (roughly translated from Germany)
I know the agony this part gave you but maybe now it won't be so hard to write. Good things will come of this. If nothing else, look at all the cookies you've got =)
It could make it easier to perform the amputation if you knew you might later be able to use the material in other ways. It's never wasted -- a good idea that didn't work in its present home is still a good idea, and might well prompt another story later.
When I write -- and I haven't, yet, in this fandom -- it's usually because I have a particular scene in mind. I did a whole novel (alas, still unpublished) based around one three-paragraph scene that just wouldn't fall out of my head until I'd written it.
The thing is, you're writing. You can't refine gold if you have no ore to process, right? So it's all good.

Yes! I thought I was the only one that got weirdly obsessed wiht one scene and have to build a story to see it. Whee!

Yes. I am brave and I am refining ore here. That is how I will think of it. *very determined*

That makes sense because it is something of you, something you created and it is a loss. Even if cutting it is for the better, it's still a loss.

*sighs* I can so get over this. It's just freaky.
