Unless I get edits in the middle of a work in progress, I can only work on one story at a time.

I've tried, but I can only focus on one thing at a time. Happily, that works for me. <br />I'm so glad you're writing an Edwardian story. My current WIP is Edwardian. I just started it and am beginning chapter six. That's such a wonderful era to write in, too. Modern, without being contemporary, if you know what I mean.<br />Good luck on all your projects!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09662077274942155406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8485938624419295539.post-5520273874947228732013-10-23T10:16:53.017-05:002013-10-23T10:16:53.017-05:00Brilliant Q&A Lauren!

And it is true - you do have such a devotion to the craft, I have seen you write in hallways, in moving cars, and even in a cold Michigan park when it was supposed to be a warm spring day. I always look forward to what you've come up with because I know I'll be in for a ride! <br />Ammy Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06883496313552781199noreply@blogger.com
