But maybe there's something I can learn from this. Maybe I can talk my I.E. into being a partner rather than a taskmaster. Great insights, Amparo!Katrina L.

Sheesh. My internal editor has gone from schoolmarm to drill sergeant and I can't complete a sentence without going back to change something in it. <br /><br />Another reason Internal Editors are a pain is that they can suck all the spontaneity out of a piece of work if you let 'em. There is such a thing as too much editing and a chapter can become dry as dust if the vampiric inner editor gets its fangs in too much.IanBontemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13942749761260327580noreply@blogger.com
