My point here isn’t to diss the Writer’s Digest copyeditors; I know a couple of the editors, and they are good, smart people. Don’t Die at Deadline. You did do some preliminary rounds of proofreading, didn’t you? Read It and Don’t Weep. When the Screen Doesn’t Make the Scene.

This lack of control can put us into debt as we purchase things we can’t afford, pursue an unfulfilling career path, and constantly chase what other people think success means.

In any kit, hidden behind the glossy painted exterior, there’s an interior structure that you can’t see. Don’t you think it’s worth $10 to purchase a formal domain? Or, perhaps a more practical reason was the cause – the jet looked really, really fast. It wasn’t enough. The structure’s there for a reason. Be patient.
