Just out of curiosity, am I the only one who has fun doing
revisions?  I finished a chapter, print the sucker out, wait
until the next day, read through it cold, making pen-and-ink
changes -- the things that are "wrong" just leap right off
the page at me, and the revised version almost invariably
seems to me to be better than the first draft, which makes
the whole revision process intensely satisfying.

Is there anyone else who has this experience?  Or am I just
a freak?
