Personally, I tend to gladly write down an SFD (with due credit to Ann Lamont) the first night I’m writing a scene. I go to sleep, then the next time I’m writing I look at it after I’ve completely cleared my mind of the clutter built up from the previous night. Then I end up changing most of what was in said first draft.

It seems redundant, but it truly makes your piece better than if you did it all in one go. Most pieces I write tend to go through several revisions after this, sometimes after getting edits from someone else. It’s a fact that’s lost on most people that the vast majority of writing is spent revising something you’ve already written.

Sorcha asked me to tell you why your fic cannot be nerfed, even though in 3.0 you can become a priest.

I don’t know the details of your growth and decision of why you cannot become a priest; however, people backtrack and revisit decisions all the time. Being told that you cannot become a priest NOW does not mean that shortly after launch you can secretly begin training in the Priesthood. Does that detract from your Fic? I don’t believe it does. It does show how things can change. Even for gnomes who want to be priests.

Tell that to my gnome warlock who just completed a long, complicated bit of fic/RP about why she has to stay in warlock school and cannot become a priest.
