Well, I’ve just received my first set of corrections from my editor and I can say with some certainty that this is going to be a clash of wills. In the end, she has final say and I will have to go along. It’s going to take some time. But I’m a big boy. I can overcome criticism. Even if that criticism is directed at my baby. I will fix what they want fixed and move on. You see writing is the fun part. Editing…Not so much. But it is a necessary evil. It proves that you are human and as such are prone to human errors. My father was an editor. He has passed on now. Still, I wish I could ask him some questions about what it was like. Did everyone hate him? Did his writers think he was mean? How did he handle it? There are a thousand things I wish I could ask him but those would definitely be among them. I miss him so. Well the edits won’t get done on their own. I will take my leave of you fine people to work on them. I’m one step closer to being published again. My pride will be set aside for a while as I fix what they want fixed.
