You've written your masterpiece, had your say, put in your two cents...now what? Ah, editing. So, why shouldn't you edit your work yourself? Some writers do. But it's also a matter of literary fact that one can be 'too close' to one’s own work to be able to edit properly, because you 'see' what should be there, not what really is there. That's why another set of eyes is crucial to putting the fine edge on your work that allows it to step out from mere writing to a fabulous piece of art.

My New Year's Resolution
My New Year's resolution is to finish a story and get it off to an agent/publisher. I want to work on the story I wrote during Nano month. I'm already happily into the second draft. Wish me luck!
