I hear you. “Rachel, what do you mean? Every book is hard to write.”

True.

But some books are harder than others.

I ran into a paralyzing premise book in “Dining with Joy” when I kept asking, “What IS that book about?”

What is “Dining with Joy.”

I ran into this same road block with “How To Catch A Prince.”

Just how does one catch a prince?

I’ve never had a book elude me so much. Never have doubts been higher.

But at the end of the day, books are not rewritten, they are rewritten.

What doesn’t work initially can be tweaked and fixed.

So, don’t get in too much of a wad — like I have — over a book that is hard to write.

My husband says when he doesn’t understand things or people he puts an “X” over it.

“Treasure buried here.”
