Woman has led a life, in which I think she learned quite a bit about shitty first drafts. I like her.Jay Diazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04399524627476896520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4633651831493501560.post-47042002330273964382010-03-29T15:54:34.334-04:002010-03-29T15:54:34.334-04:00I love the quote; "Perfectionism, she observe...I love the quote; "Perfectionism, she observes, is the voice of the oppressor."
