I have had this post open for days now, and I keep referring to it as I reconsider a "failed" novel. This is not only inspiring but has also helped me understand why the revisions I did all those years ago kept producing deeply flawed drafts. Thanks so much for this generous post!

This is really inspiring! Love to hear about Rebecca's process to revising and impressed/intimidated by the 11 weeks to a new draft.

It's amazing, right? But then she breaks it down--between 2000 words and 250 words a day, and you can get there!

I'm coming back comment on this to just say how much this post continues to inspire me. I also learned how my brain works recently, and being able to see--in photos--what Rebecca did was particularly illuminating. Thank you!
