I’ve just posted some ideas about rewriting over at Sterling Editing.
Yes, you in the back of the room, I did rewrite it before I posted it (grin). I rewrite everything, even mail. Because that makes it better and besides, I get brownie points in Writer’s Paradise, a lovely place where writers are always appropriately paid, beautifully marketed, and never have to buy their own drinks again. I hope to visit there someday…
… but today is not that day. Today I just get to be a writer, editor, sweetie, person alive on the planet. And you know what? Apart from the pay and the PR and the ever-flowing champagne, it pretty much is paradise to me.
I love rewriting. It’s my favorite part.
@Zack, me too, actually. Don’t tell anyone, they’ll kick us out of the Writer’s Guild 🙂
