In my memory, it was wonderful. Reading it a few days ago, I want to throw the whole pile of garbage out and start all over. So I sympathize with anyone having the editing blues.Kara Hartzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03036587106896735695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5196094336176295818.post-37775702437118403712011-06-17T11:16:55.305-04:002011-06-17T11:16:55.305-04:00Editing down a storm, ha :) Good luck!

I know that's one of the best ways to stick to something, especially editing where you can't always track your word count.Elizabeth Poolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03214706118828699708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5196094336176295818.post-34102474535063020342011-06-13T05:01:18.567-04:002011-06-13T05:01:18.567-04:00Re: Thinking about editing while doing something e...Re: Thinking about editing while doing something else: A+ lol<br /><br />I also get an A+ for this one. I also get an A+ for Thinking About Writing While Doing Something Else...<br /><br />I don't like Editing but some people find it easier and more enjoyable than the actual writing process. I look at it as a job that needs to be done, so I do it - when I'm not thinking about something else...<br /><br />Good luck with yoursDRChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03352970077497112668noreply@blogger.com
