I always...I don't blame him for fighting back.<br /><br />I always keep scenes I decided to delete. I have an entire big file of all the stuff I deleted from my first Russian historical. About 99% of the original 1993 material (from the first of my three major phases of working on the book) was either expunged or radically rewritten. When going through the book, I know exactly what's missing, and where, but it reads so much better without all that garbage I took out.Carrie-Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05810154378449825641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-54938977959103899132016-07-27T12:24:19.902-04:002016-07-27T12:24:19.902-04:00Thanks, Nicola!
