Slash and Burn

I get so much pleasure out of cutting words, you’d think I wouldn’t have any left.

On editing

I love shedding words. 

My editing theme song. One more draft. Can’t stop, won’t stop.

Editing starts today. I can’t explain why, but I’m nervous to read it all from start to finish. Remembering what Hemingway said: 

“The first draft of anything is shit.”
