I'm Taking a Fantastic Voyage. Won't You Join Me?
You had me at: "Working with a good editor feels good." #1 is a killer. This person masks their sadistic self importance in "But it's for your own good," as if it's like hiding an aspirin in honey. NO, it is nothing at all like that. It burns all the way down. Thank you Chazz. …
