“When writers talk about
editing, I don’t know how to take it until I know what kind of editing they are
talking about. You see, there are two kinds of editing The first happens when, as
you edit, you keep saying to yourself, ‘this is great. Did I really write this?’
and the second is when you cringe and say, ‘this is awful. Why did I ever think
I could become a writer.’ All statements about editing need to clarify which
type of editing is meant.”
