"Ha," said Sarah. She clicked her fingers in triumph and began to type feverishly. She was sure she was making mistakes but it didn't matter. Practically the first thing they told you when studding creative writing was that editing could come later. She had been working on her novel for, well if you counted her childhood crayon scribblings, all her life and still it wasn't done. At least four of the chapters she had written had been chapter one at one time. Now she had had the inspiration and decided to write long hand. Without a backspace button editing had to come at the end. Every evening she had written at least a page and had filled two large pads of paper. Now was the time to write it up on the computer. This had the advantage of instantly having a chance to edit.
Now she had added the prologue, epilogue and dedication and was ready to send the manuscript off. Only time would tell if it would be the next Harry Potter or a complete flop only enjoyed by friends and family.
