All of my unfinished pieces are complete in the sense that I have full drafts. Some of them I am on draft 5 or 6. By "the end" in this sense I mean to the point where they are ready to be submitted or published.Writers on the Stormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05512984931055509966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2976780897387158854.post-2957337780854138062017-03-16T12:37:47.783-07:002017-03-16T12:37:47.783-07:00Do you plot at all before you start?

Then I can go back to these old projects with a fresh eye.

Finishing things is another skill that needs practice to be mastered.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your thoughts on these books. Btw, don't judge all Terry Pratchett books by his early work.
