Writer's Realization #1

Ya know that feeling you get sometimes, while you're writing a piece, that it's unbelievably amazing? Well, it's most likely not the unbelievably amazing piece that you think it is. Not yet, anyway. Finish it, take a break from it, then edit the hell out of it. Even if it's unbelievably amazing in its first draft, it's not as unbelievably amazing as it'll be after it's edited and revised.
