But, I have had articles published and think "wow, the editor made it sound great" only to go back and realize that they hadn't really changed anything. So I agree with Ray & Elise. Let it stew in its own juices for a while and it will probably sound amazing again.Traceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16729536226775394377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4298903339195017942.post-76530358646195356232009-01-28T09:04:00.000-08:002009-01-28T09:04:00.000-08:00I promise you that manuscript is going to come cra...I promise you that manuscript is going to come crawling back.

You're just at that 'hyper-critical-and-overly-sensitive' stage of the creative process. Let it simmer in a drawer, and when you have fresh eyes, I'm sure you'll be reminded of your own genius once more.Ray Veenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11956279552298172157noreply@blogger.com
