Rip Apart

I hate this process. I have a logical brian A-B in the fastest way taking as quickly as possible to acheve the goal, with as few a steps as possible to do it right but corrrectly and now I need to learn flowery or A-B meandering through c,d,e,f,g,h,and so on ... not easy for someone who doesnt think that way

I really dont want to rip anything apart not least fat bums but people cant be wrong. I do tell more than I show. Learning to show is a pain in the arse but comes so easy to people when they have been shown exactly where to change it ... not so easy when you really dont get what they are on about ..... steep learning curve

But one with grave consiquences because now 2 books I wrote yrs ago are shelved indefinately because of this tell V show. I cant face pulling them apart. They are as real as it gets. real people, real situations, real emotion, real nightmares and real anniversaries of devastating incidents to deal with. I cant deal with that just now so they are shelved... maybe 1 day they will come back out to play  but rewriting 200,000words+ is not going to be easy and I dont have time nor the inclination to start.

So fat bums it is ... I will try and fix this and then see what else can be achieved ... right now am too mad and fed up to do much ...
