Makes me cringe when I think of what a publisher's editor is going to eventually put me through!C.J.

During my breaks on a job a few years ago, I actually wrote the original draft of "Land of the Blind" in long-hand, with lots of notes in the margins. All the young guys in the company were astounded -- they didn't know what long-hand was.<br><br>Anyway, whatever works is what I say.Gregory Marshall Smithhttp://devereauxmarshallfox.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8198581514056172349.post-91590322965787779242010-01-21T08:04:19.000-05:002010-01-21T08:04:19.000-05:00Hey, wasn't Hemingway the revision king, editi...Hey, wasn't Hemingway the revision king, editing 30 to 40 times before he was happy...or should I say the least unhappy with his work?

I don't have quite as many revisions under my belt (yet) but I find the more I revise, the more I want to keep going till I get it right.<br><br>The long-hand I don't think I understand.
