So much of it is giving ourselves permission and meeting ourselves however we arrive at the page. I'm a late-in-life writer, so I feel like I am learning HOW to "be" it alongside learning the craft. It's quite a journey! As for cuts, I have a file for each project. It's funny how, on the one hand, we're supposed to "kill our darlings," yet "never throw anything away." 😂
Haha yes! Cutting and killing our darlings is very real, but then I can’t quite say goodbye! I feel like this platform offers a space to explore and try new things, and as you say, give ourselves permission whatever stage we are in life.
