This week I’m editing a piece I’ve been working on now for a few months — lots of research, lots of reworking. This edit, among other things, has involved rearranging the text, slightly changing the structure (thankfully not so much the actual content of the sentences). It continues to amaze me that moving a sentence from one part of a piece to another can change the overall piece so much. A tiny shift, a massive change.
It also seems kind of fitting that I should be doing this work in my writing when I’m doing exactly that kind of work in my life.
Moving interstate forces you to rearrange things.
I will write more about the moving interstate rearranging once things have settled a little. Which, I hope, will be soon.
