Personally I would love having a dispassionate but committed and literate critic with whom I could discuss flaws and weakness, especially those I don’t even notice – or doesn’t it work this way?

I don’t think they are always necessary as you show very well!

Litlove,
You need not fear, I don’t feel dispensable, rather I see the need to adapt to the changing circumstances!

Lee, with writing like yours I’m sure you could have an editor if you wanted one. I like mine because he’s always telling me funny stories and sending me books. It’s not directly involved with the writing process, but I work harder for him as a consequence.

Frustrating!

Eoin, I’m quite worried for you now. Would you like me and Bloglily to come and be a human shield for you?
