  9. @robynmcintyre I do! I'm about 150 pages into the very messy first draft of a new novel. Hoping to have a draft in a year. #litchat 1:57 PM May 25th via TweetChat in reply to robynmcintyre

  12. @robynmcintyre At the moment I only have a few firm dates - Boston, Portsmouth, Rhinebeck, and NYC - but I'm trying to set up... #litchat 1:53 PM May 25th via TweetChat in reply to robynmcintyre
  13. @LouiseHenrich Yes! I make up stories for myself about where their lives went after the end of the book. #litchat 1:52 PM May 25th via TweetChat in reply to LouiseHenrich
  14. @LouiseHenrich I know, I always forget that Twitter thinks numbers are hash tags. :) #litchat 1:49 PM May 25th via TweetChat in reply to LouiseHenrich
  15. @robbcadigan ...with the good, so they won't just flatter you with praise for the book. #litchat 1:49 PM May 25th via TweetChat in reply to robbcadigan
  16. @robbcadigan I find it's a good idea to only show the work to other writers; they understand that you need to hear the bad along... #litchat 1:49 PM May 25th via TweetChat in reply to robbcadigan
  17. @robbcadigan So the "first draft" that my editor sees is in reality more like draft #5. #litchat 1:46 PM May 25th via TweetChat in reply to robbcadigan
  18. @robbcadigan They come back to me with comments, and then I revise and show it to my agent. She has comments too. More revisions. #litchat 1:46 PM May 25th via TweetChat in reply to robbcadigan
  19. @robbcadigan Writing process: I show a first draft to my husband + two other readers, both of whom are novelists. #litchat 1:46 PM May 25th via TweetChat in reply to robbcadigan
  20. @robbcadigan oh, I apologize, I missed your first tweet there, so mine probably made no sense! #litchat 1:45 PM May 25th via TweetChat in reply to robbcadigan
