It is difficult beyond measure for a writer to find a publisher today, or even an agent... and agents are, in most cases, the first line of screening for book and feature publications.

Today, the computer has put the scut work of writing into a manageable process for everyone ~ and everyone has a book in him. Competition is enormous.

To run the gauntlet of that competition, your writing must have not just grammatical polish and smooth syntax, but a dynamic which makes it unique.  It must have a workable structure from first submission.

Self-editing is absolutely the toughest aspect of writng.  All writers, even those at the top, require objective editing... all.  No exceptions.  Including me!
