Here’s the second half of what I started blogging last night, but was too groggy to finish. Working with the editor person is always an adventure, because I have one idea of what I wanted to write, the editor person has a vision of what it could look like, and then there is the matter of what’s on the page. Let’s just say I think a lot faster than I type, orphaning some very important parts of the sentence. Like verbs. Or prepositions. Or maybe I leave out a sentence that really needs to be there, that is crucial to understand what is happening.
On later review, the mind, well my mind anyway, has the tendency to fill in the missing words, completing the sentences as I thought them in the first place. This “habit” makes for some very interesting reading.
Editor person lets out an enormous belly laugh at things like that. And that’s why I’m here, to make editor person laugh. But my point is that I make a lot of mistakes, and I don’t always see them when I’m making them. That’s why editor person is so critical. They see EVERYTHING and they catch the screw ups. Just try and slip something by editor person. I dare you.
Unfortunately editor person doesn’t have enough time to review my blogs, so errors may find their way into the entries now and again. I’ll try my best to catch them.
