Can't help myself

Must stop editing....must stop editing. Charlie tells me that this is the trap lots of new wirters fall in to. I keep going over and over and changing and changing each new passage. I think they are good changes but it is definately slowing me down. That might not be a problem if I were younger, but hey, I'd like to maybe write a second one. It's like Charlie advised, I'm going to go back and change a lot anyway. I'll probably throw out large chunks in their entirety, so just write and worry about the edits later. See? All that makes perfect sense here. But you know what I'm going to do when I've finished this? You guessed it. I'm going to go back and re-read what I've already written and probably makes some edits. Hey, I never claimed to be a fast learner. Just an anal retentive one.
