There's no way I could do it that quickly. Takes me a day to write a story, another day to edit it, and then I generally end up doing another edit... and the submission takes effing ages when you have to faff about researching, formatting correctly, going to the post office etc...<br /><br />Are you really that quick? I'm v impressed. This is (one of the many reasons) why I was rubbish at being a freelance writer. I'm nowhere near fast enough.Beleaguered Squirrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13699493386984083561noreply@blogger.com
