Fixing

[ksmith]

It takes me longer to adjust existing sentences than it does to create them from whole cloth. Scenes that seemed to work so well fall apart upon closer inspection. Mood and tone and emotion don't fit together as well as they should. Beloved phrases become surprisingly easy to scrap.

Cross-eyed and clueless is a bad place to be. You really have no idea where you are. You can't see through the clouds, and your instruments are malfunctioning. All you can do is keep flying straight ahead and hope you don't hit a mountain.

Good times.
