Rawr. I understand why it happens, and I even accept it, but that doesn't mean I have to like it. I feel I'm a passable editor and I am able to give helpful suggestions to another author. Yet when I try to do the same to my own works, I find that it's magical, perfect, without mistake. Obviously I can fix minor problems that I stumble across, but additions, restructure, making the story better? How can I change perfection!
I know that there's obviously more to work on, but I can't do it. It's not that I lack objectivity, I find I can pull away from my works and myself fairly easily. It has to do with the fact that this writing has come from me, and so it dwells in the enormous blind spot of me. I hope to do my best, and then give the story to those around me and hope they can give the story what I cannot.
