On Writing: Linkage

[lagilman]

Once again, Booksquare is talking sensibly...this time about the need for editors

Of course, my feeling about what's said here is 'welcome to the party, how come you're so late?" But then, I've always been biased in favor of being edited. I know and admit that I'd be in trouble without Mary-Theresa (Luna) and Ellen (Parachute)!

Only a complete egotistical loony or Anne Rice--Ooooo wait, that's redundant--would think not being edited is a good thing. I know I'm not objective enough to survive without being edited...In fact, in addition to having an editor for all my projects, I'm seriously thinking about hiring one for my personal life. This is especially true if I'm sitting in the stands next to a Giants fan--I know I'll need an editor before I say something really stupid...something like, "Man, those Giants look good--almost like real football players, y'know like the Eagles."
