Someone told me to stop having my book critiqued and just submit the damn thing already. Probably good advice. I have to remind myself that editors make changes, too. They may see something special in it the way it is and ask for some changes - there's no way I'm going to head off every possible criticism, or everyone's opinion.

I made some changes tonight. I feel less anxiety now, and I can go to sleep. But will I still love these changes in the morning?
