Editor's don't edit, or if they are forced to do so by their superiors they whine and resist as much as possible. This is something I've learned from dealing with the publishing industry over the past 16 years. :? They will reject something before they ever decide to use any red ink. :evil:
Dave was really lucky that he had friends at JG.
99.99% of any publishers would have instantly rejected the disorganised heap of random, crazy material in the FFC. I've learned to appreciate the book's 'raw', natural state--kinda like seeing the universe a millisecond after the Big Bang: chaotic, oftimes incomprehensible, but awe-inspiring and humbling.
