1. The first draft is ALWAYS shit. No exceptions. Yes, even if it reads good as you write it. No good book in the history of mankind was written without editing. The magic is in the sculpting, not the outline.

2. Write first, ask questions later. Never edit during. Just copy the outline in prose format as fast as you can. If you stop or slow, your progress slows and the work suffers. And you will be able to notice it.(less)

David Schulze liked Bob's review of The Sins of Jack Branson (Modern Myth Trilogy #1):
The Sins of Jack Branson by David Schulze
"interesting story based on real events in 19th century England.

Use of modern language was rather odd but it was a very good story. The Narrator was excellent. Will be reading the next two books in the trilogy. "
