EDITOR: Why is Nya doing blah blah blah in this scene instead of blah blah blah?
ME: Um... Because I said so?
EDITOR: Nope, try again.
ME: --bangs head on keyboard trying to think up a good reason--
"Because I said so" works for mom's, why not writers? Not fair. Totally not fair.
I feel for you. (ROFL)
ReplyDeleteAh!! I so wish that excuse would work!
ReplyDeleteHope you figured that one out, Janice -- but might I say that it's a tiny relief to know that you're not superwoman? You always seem to have the answers! And yayyyyy for editors pointing out a weakness that authors can't see on their own.
ReplyDeletelmao! I wish I could say "because I said so" and it would work. You are right - always worked for mums. Works for my mum. All the time.
ReplyDeleteI am so not superwoman, LOL. I struggle with stuff same as everyone else, even when I know what I ought to be doing. :) My editor(s) are fantastic.
