I know you've mentioned "Pancake Wednesday" to me before, but I had no idea it was the turning point. We may both then owe a lot to pancakes. Ross: My absolute pleasure. Laurie: Though I will constantly improve the quality of my fabric, I shall never lay my needle down. Chris: I believe so, yes. I often learn something by revisiting old work, be it post or comment. It's an insight to look into your mind during an otherwise forgotten yesterday. Janice: I like the rewrite, but I think we should hold true to the idea that we should never toss out the original. If you write it, keep it forever. Reason #341 why I love my Macbook. Kristin T: You're quite welcome. How many of us nail it on the first try? It's better to mold the clay than beat into submission, I believe. Eric: You’re welcome and that’s nice to know.

Tue, 16 Dec 2008 17:16:59 +0000 http://writerdad.com/?p=1808#comment-3936 I love that you can see value and potential in a concept, while critiquing the execution and finding ways to improve it. Too often in our creative endeavors, we become frustrated with an idea and toss the whole thing out as garbage, rather than examining, salvaging, and tweaking. We feel embarrassed that something didn't work, rather than seeing it as an opportunity to grow and be more transparent with others.

There is a documentary quality to firsts, a purity of that moment in that place at that time. Like a sketch. That's not to say we can't take the idea and the impact of that first sketch and play with it a bit. Give it some patina, some polish, some adjustment for the new time and place we occupy. Extend the concept in a series. But those first strokes, they are kind of nice too. Hm, a touchstone if you will. I liked both of these. And I like that you are agile and responsive with what you choose to do. As always a treat, Sean. <abbr><em>Janice Cartiers last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/cartier/paintings/~3/482842787/santa-came-early.html" rel="nofollow">Santa Came Early</a></abbr></em> I have mixed feelings about rewrites.
