A first draft is a courtship—terrifying and stimulating. Infatuation is allowed. Revision is noticing that your lover’s voice is a little grating when she gets excited, or finding his car blocking yours in the driveway when you’re late to work, or discovering a receipt from the local No Tell Motel in your lover’s pocket—and you’ve never been to the No Tell. ~ Jan Burke
A good quote!
