Writerland, Chapter 30: Please Be My Editor, Rachel Dry. Please.

Writerland is a newsletter from The Delacorte Review whose mission is to help writers tell the stories they need to tell. The relationship between writers and editors is much like the relationship between teenagers and their parents. The kids are desperate to assert their independence even as they need to know their parents are there, when needed, at any time - day or night - for any reason - small or large - even though when it comes to writers and teenagers there are never small reasons, not when everything matters and if it doesn’t get fixed immediately you could, like, die or worse still, have the best sentence you have ever written cut.
