I have a habit of writing, "So and so breathed against the glass....now think about that for a minute...you don't breathe a word...you "whisper" it...and as a former editor, that sometimes is a difficult thing for even me to swallow. Deadlines make me insane, but we have to do it. If we didn't we couldn't call ourselves writers.

I have to put the thing down for a day because I don't want to be depressed. LOL!<BR/><BR/>Yes, some are stupid, some aren't and some won't be changed for a variety of reasons which usually have to do with voice or plot. <BR/><BR/>BUT just think about not having an editor.

J is a wonderful person and I for one can't do without her.<BR/><BR/>LynnLynn Crainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17563978872099232823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3294899951619699125.post-17875311290335647032008-10-13T11:39:00.000-07:002008-10-13T11:39:00.000-07:00You are not the only one who misses the beat belie...You are not the only one who misses the beat believe me. I am a former paralegal and I still cringe inside when I miss an oh so obvious editing error. I thought I was going to go bonkers the first time I edited a galley on a 332 page book! LOL You have my complete understanding and sympathy.
