Thank you, Jody, for writing this and giving me a better understanding of the writing process and how haircuts are mathematically involved. 😀 I let my hair grow out then I get a buzz-cut.
"Beginner’s mind in writing is the place where we give birth to fresh ideas and surprising connections. Later, we may have to murder our darlings; that’s how this process goes. Cruel as it may seem, the idea that we thought was the point is often the head that has to roll."
"Art might happen, or heads might roll." It's like the tender riot grrl anthem I've been searching for.
A Saturday offering? Great way to start the weekend!
Thanks, Brad! Yep, my schedule got all out of whack after travel. Figured I'd get something out there while I could.
