Going through the First Pages (course and actual pages) and the process of cutting the superfluous . . .
The flowery stuff. The extra fluff. The words that we fill in between the important ones.
It’s painful, but it needs to be done.
Maybe I can put all those extra words into a vase on my desk like cut flowers. They will die off in time.
Now I need to remember this process each time I write, read, rewrite, and edit.
Cut the unessential …
Words.
