There’s satisfaction in knowing that the writing piece one has done is the best possible work one could have done, and with a conscientious editor, who fills in the flawed parts with a deft touch.

If this is the case, the pressure is on the writer, quite unfairly, to produce the quality edit that an editor would have.
