I suspect Kathy rants (I mean WRITES) this post on behalf of writers everywhere…
You know how even when you know what you’ve written isn’t as good as it ought to be, you think you’ve gone as far as you can go with it, but you also know you haven’t, and your deadline is tomorrow, about 18 months after your original deadline, so you give it one more going-over, and you spend a whole day marking and then a whole day making changes to the manuscript in LibreOffice, because there were so many things you found that needed to be changed, and when it’s finally done, both your brain and your body are just fried, and you send it off, and then even though you know you shouldn’t, you show 15 pages to your writer friends, and they
say it’s better than it was the last time you showed it to us, BUT, and they scribble all over your pages, and they’re so right…

Thanks so much for reblogging. I suspect the experience is universal. Something we all have in common with Hemingway. (I could have sworn I was following your blog. I think something slipped, or whatever digital things do.)
