"The conscious mind is the editor, and the subconscious mind is the writer. And the joy of writing, when you're writing from your subconscious, is beautiful -- it's thrilling. When you're editing, which is your conscious mind, it's like torture. And I've just kind of decided that anytime it's torture, I want to stop. I'll just put it down and wait until it becomes not torture." --Steve Martin
This quote is so true for me. Unfortunately lately I seem to have had more torturous days than not! I think that's why I stopped over Christmas vacation. I want to get out of the editing phase and back to the joy of creating.
