I insisted over and over again throughout my process that I was stubbornly going to NOT use an editor, and I know how against conventional wisdom this is, and I stressed about it… and this comment by Nicole M made it all worth it https://t.co/mJugO6oYsv

I’m sure most editors can help most books just as most therapists can help most people, but I am not most people and this is not most books I don’t doubt that there are *some* editors who can really grasp what I’m doing but finding one would itself be a whole lengthy process

and even then, I think it mattered to me deeply that Introspect be an unedited book precisely because you never fucken get to read a book like this that’s unedited. The imperfection is the point!!
