Writing mini-workshop

Do you read Maggie Stiefvater's LJ ()? Let's back up: do you read Maggie's books? I highly recommend them. In fact, two of them made my top reads of 2011 post. But anyway, back to Maggie's LJ. She wrote a post showing the first draft of a chapter from THE SCORPIO RACES and then the final draft, commenting on what revisions she made and why. She also comments extensively on the first draft version, explaining why she wrote what she did and giving some transparency into the mechanics of the scene. 

Really, really valuable stuff there. Like a mini workshop on writing. You can check it out here, if you're interested. Also, it will give you a taste of THE SCORPIO RACES. :)
