Which is probably why I have so many unedited manuscripts. And why I've spent the past six months pretty much editing - trying to get books cleaned up so I can publish them myself. <br /><br />I love these posts with an insight into how you write, Lynn. I'm always interested in seeing other people's processes. =oo)B.E.

It's a lot, so I do get assignments done quickly, but I don't recommend it as a starting quota for anyone.<br /><br /><br /><br /> the authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03220786472896283714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-38996303355555083172015-01-07T07:46:16.054-05:002015-01-07T07:46:16.054-05:00For your copy writing, how long is each week long ...For your copy writing, how long is each week long assignment? So how many words a day are you writing and editing?<br /><br />I know right now I'm doing rough draft races, and getting a stack of very, very (did I mention very) rough drafts done, then I'll go back and flesh them out and make them into something I can start having a beta look at, but I'm only managing about 1 rough every month. Granted I work full time and what not, but I'm curious as to how fast you can get yours out.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08750425379922238031noreply@blogger.com
