And I agree: writing in rhyme is very labor-intensive - sometimes more so that writing in prose.<br /><br />Hope you're doing well and had a great 4th!Lauren F.

I have spent up to 8 hours on a single stanza of "the WIP that will not be named," so it's comforting to hear that other rhymers go through the same trauma. Love the Mem Fox example.<br /><br />Also love your revision! Would be glad to read a draft when you feel ready. Always love and learn from your stuff.Julie Hedlundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04477115458570906449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3647218177948670695.post-61627204960097120582011-07-01T19:13:50.321-04:002011-07-01T19:13:50.321-04:00What a clever post, Corey!
