words


“The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.” Mark Twain


I love editing because it's about rules. It's about order and making things neat. It's about organizing and making sense of chaos. It's art with a different medium, not paint or pencils but thoughts, ideas, and patterns of persuasion. 


Let's face it I like feeling in control and that's the way it is with words and with editing. You're the creator, the words your clay.
