I need an Editor
I'm planning to drop another bundle of spooky stories this month on Amazon!

Right now the struggle is trying to select which ones fit the bill and determining the best way to edit/re-write the ones that were a bit lackluster. I'm thinking the Sea of Trees will occupy a nice chunk, being a novella and all. Just need to tweak that last third... *cringes*

It's tricky to rework something you've written in the past. I think it's a result of being in a particular headspace during the creation, you look back and wonder at the influences present when you first wrapped threads around that nucleus of an idea. Of course, time and experience help you spot mistakes... But it's the tone and passion that are lacking.

Do other creative people suffer from this problem? I wonder if I'm not alone in my struggles.
