The look on your face when you’re editing

This picture connects to Day 25 and the reality of my editing. Actually, I don’t edit that much, but to be fair I haven’t completed a full manuscript that I have had to edit. 😂

My published pieces were edited by the publication editors, so I was able to pass the responsibility on to them. 😜

When I do need to edit my own work, I do not really feel it a cumbersome task because I tend to write once I have outlined what I want to say. This is why I can be slow in getting something out.

Of course, this is not always the case and there are plenty of times when I write something that is complete gibberish. In those cases, rather than edit, I tend to just start over and rework the parts that can be used into the new piece. Perhaps one would just simply call that editing, though? 🤷🏽‍♀️

In any case, with the help of furry friends, I generally avoid it altogether. 😂🤣
