Me: I'm more than halfway with the editing! A major lie. I'm on page 16 of 38. I am, however, trying to be optimistic and I aim to impress so I know I'll finish this tonight. I love hearing "What? You're done with everything?" and giving a smile that's both polite and self-assured because I've been a writer for as long as I can remember and in the business of making people look good for years. I know what I'm doing.
