Amanda: Yeah, I used to do that too. I had to stop because I just didn’t have the time (as I wrote in my post on prioritizing, linked below.)

If it is of any help to anyone, I once compiled a huge (yes, that’s the right word) compendium of writer quotes on the craft, which I then made available for the those interest to read and/or download as a pdf file. You can get there from here: http://anandawolf.com/essays/on-craft/the-elements-of-fiction.

You know that when you spend the morning agonizing about changing a semicolon to a comma, and the afternoon agonizing about putting it back to a semicolon: then you’re done.

Thanks, Kira. I agree, there’s never enough time to make it perfect. That’s really my lesson #8.

Thank you, Mandy! And I agree totally. That’s why I usually have someone read it over for me when I think I’ve read it enough times: a friend if it’s fiction or my boss if it’s work. And then I give it a day and read it again. Sleeping on it usually works. Dang, that should have been #9.

I am like no other with Mandy, I always run out of time during revisions stage. The hard thing in blogging is that we all have to do all the stuff from research, content creation, up to proofreading, editing..ALL! But I’d fun doing it.

Anyway, I’d like to thank you for sharing these tips here, very helpful really. I work within the Internet marketing scheme that’s why I don’t have any worst problem with my marketing skills.

Great post Unmana 🙂

I always have a tough time with revisions. Editing my own work after awhile can be so difficult – I feel like I’ve read over the same sentence 100 times!
