Having just read Daniel's Interview with Tess Gerritsen: I now realise where I am going wrong. I have wrote 4 Chapters of my Novel and keep going over it and over it perfecting and changing ,thus losing the plot. Not the story plot but my own I feel now that I must continue to write and perfect the finished piece ... otherwise I will not get past Chapter 5........ I do agree that every individual must learn the way of creating a first novel on thier own ... trying out different ideas etc. But I think you must write what you feel ....and not what someone else feels. Although I do worry that my book will not sell 1 copy
