I'M IN DEVELOPMENT
by Rebecca Dienger

Thinking small makes me feel like I have more time.

I don't look for wide open spaces anymore, because it's a process.  I take detailed notes on ideas for later development.

I free-write in short sessions but never leave a thought unfinished. I revise while the kids are occupied.  (Days
may pass between versions, making it easier to edit.)

I target several markets so I can quickly resubmit a piece if it's rejected.  I'm aiming high, low, and everywhere in
between to find my niche, believing these habits will take me much further and faster when my kids are older.

BIO:
