Rewriting is Writing
I still write the way I learned in kindergarten. By hand. Using a number two pencil. Listening inside my head to the words as I read them. Erasing and replacing sentences. Crossing out paragraphs. Crumpling up pages. Throwing out whole chapters. For me, writing, revising, and editing, are all part-and-parcel. If I do one, I’m doing the other.
