"I don't sit down and it flows out. The first eight drafts are terrible ... It's never come easy."

Nice advice.
ReplyDeleteI like the new design of your blog.
If a writer of Gladwell's calibre feels that way after eight drafts, can give one hope, hey?
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks. Spiffy and clean, no? If I do say so myself.
Yes, spiffy and clean. :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome change in the design!
ReplyDeleteIt looks neat and very easy to read. And in the same time dreamy and aspiring for more ( the clouds effect). I had to read the comment above to make sure it is not just me or my computer that sees the difference. :)
