I have issues with second drafts. I write a first draft, like it, but then I'm never quite sure how to connect the dots from first draft to publishable.

If you too have second-drafts-suck-itis, then pop on over to the writing challenge section of the site.

If edits are your thing, then pop on over so you can crush the rest of us with the mighty power of your red pen.

Either way,

I've gotta say that our most recent challenge was heaps of fun, a great way to get writing, get some early feedback and get a head-start into writing something publishable. This one sounds like it'll be a blast too.

Oh, I'm so glad someone else has second-drafts-suck-itis. I thought I was the only one.

Freud would have a field day with me. My eyes inverted the 'i' and 't' in itis.

You so wanted to know.
