#writersCoffeeClub 5/2: Have you had an idea halfway or more through a project that required extensive rewriting of what you've already done?
This is ABSOLUTELY NORMAL for novel-sized projects! (I'm 85% of the way into a manuscript right now. The original plan was a Frederick Forsyth style tribute to "Day of the Jackal", but halfway through it was carjacked and taken for a joy ride by The Abominable Doctor Phibes …)
