Editing is the final activity before publishing. It is the opportunity to change some thing in an article. How much we exit depends on how we we wish to convey our thought to our readers.
When I complete a writing assignment, I set it aside for a day then go back to it. At times I've added a sentence or deleted a paragraph or rewrote the whole story. Editing is something that shouldn't be taken lightly. It can be the difference between acceptance and rejection. Presenting our best work is a reflection on the author.
I find editing fun some times because I found a better way of conveying my thought. It can be a metaphor, or a quote, or learning a new word. It's also an education in the writing process.
