#WritersCoffeeClub sept 9: ever abandoned a writing project that wasn’t working?
npub1zl93dtqgvm78n7gqsse3tncf3x958p9dnyxr036y3qqsy0c7gq3swg76w7 (npub1zl9…76w7): "This is a weird question because maybe the vast majority of words I’ve written are in abandoned projects. Isn’t that how everyone works?"
Not me, if I can help it! But I write for a living, so abandoned projects are wasted working hours. (Or days, or months, or (in extremis) years.) You learn not to do that fast, if you want to eat and keep a roof over your head.
