I especially like what you’ve said about not seeing what we wrote, but what we thought we wrote. That’s so true!

We don’t see what we wrote, we see what we thought we wrote. They’re not always the same.

This blog post expresses precisely why I love what I do. I have worked for someone who said, in effect, that we’re paid enough to fix this kind of error but not that kind of error. I’m glad I don’t work there anymore. If there is anything at all getting between the writer and the reader, I love cleaning that up.
