I agree with what everyone else said. Sometimes it's incredibly satisfying, and I love being able to see my story get better and stronger. Other times it's like pulling a hanging piece of yarn from a beautiful sweater and watching it unravel. I have to keep pulling to fix the problem, but I worry I won't be able to make it lovely again. That said, it's one of my favorite parts. Am I crazy? ;)Dawn Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05667675689038435581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078278410744887002.post-73498859927850352392012-01-08T15:57:27.264-08:002012-01-08T15:57:27.264-08:00Revision is a mixed bag, isn't it?
