Friday is not far away, and then there is half-term, which is bound to hinder the blog, the writing and everything.
So today's Writing Wednesday post is a bit of a cheat, in that it is a speedy link (albeit to worthwhile sites to look at). I came across the link through twitter over the weekend. So via Author Culture you can reach Discover, and Ed Yong's graph of the writing process.
It amuses me for the ring of truth. Clearly my memoir is a different beast to his science book, but there are a lot of similarities in the emotional peaks and troughs. I think I'm about halfway on the line up to 'It's done!' - although I don't have the surety of someone demanding (and paying for!) the book in the first place. Still, I can dream!

I like editing the best of all the writing process. So enjoy I say - and as for cutting; that's okay, you can use those words again somewhere else I always think.
Oh you are lucky; I can never get past page ten before a totally different idea rolls onto the tracks my train of thought is heading down. And always write on the day you feel happiest, it makes such a lot of difference.
