What do you dislike about being a writer?
Editing. I edit each story three times.
The first draft is the easiest because I’m just writing and having fun.
The second and third drafts are the hardest because I’m editing each word, sentence, paragraph, chapter. I have to check that the story details are consistent e.g. a character isn’t black in chapter 1 and white in chapter 2. I check for typos and anything that doesn’t make sense.
The fourth, and last, draft is the easiest. I let the computer read the story to me and only stop it if something doesn’t sound right.
When I finally finish editing, the story is always much better than how it started.
