Borrowing from Mary's post yesterday, but whittling it down a little, here are Ten Things I Know About My Writing:
1. I know I'll never run out of ideas - because I always have a new one before I'm done working on the old one.
2. I know that writing the first draft is fun, editing the first draft is hell.
3. I know I'll have to break down and write a real synopsis someday - just not today.
4. I know I wouldn't be as happy writing if I didn't have my writing friends to share it with (*waves*).
5. I know my love of writing stems from my passion of reading.
6. I know that I never get rid of anything I write (not even stuff I edit out - it's just in a different file).
7. I know that most of my novel ideas start with a writing prompt.
8. I know that I am sometimes swayed too much by other peoples opinions.
9. I know I want to hold out for the brass ring and not compromise when I do get published. I want it all, and I want it with a well known print publisher.
10. I know that I've been writing since I could write, and will write until I die.
Anyone else want to share?

Wow! I could've written that list! But I bet it rings true for most writers.
Edits are bad, synopsis's (synopsii?) are worse.
rgvmpjg-well, thats a toughie.
I love this list! Heck, I can add a couple to mine - the not compromising and the writing friends!
