I am so glad you'll use some of these!<br /><br />@Laurel, I know quite a few people who chronically revise, so I was thrilled to find this tool :)<br /><br />@Susanne, I know. CHOCOLATE. It's like feasting without the calories. :)<br /><br />@Sharon, let me know how it goes!<br /><br />@Jemi, I find I need motivation during revisions, too. Drafting I'm find with, but revising? Ugh.<br /><br />@Golden Eagle, I am a bit afraid to try Write Or Die. Although I understand you can tone 'down' the concept and make it so you don't actually lose your WC, so I guess I could try it and 'ease into it'.
