Right? Right.
Because it means I'm using my words elsewhere. Mostly in my novel. I've been working most recently on developing more distinct voices. When I started this manuscript, the characters weren't wholly solidified in my own mind, so there wasn't a lot of differentiation since I didn't know in what ways they were different yet. Now that I have a clearer vision for that, it's actually fun to look back and be able to say, "that's not what she would say--she would say this instead."
So while editing sometimes feels like navigating a labyrinth, I'm enjoying the moments where I am beginning to see the path more clearly.
