Philip Pullman: This is where editors come in. Their function is to snatch the book from you and run away quickly!
Tamora Pierce: Yes, and then to come back and say, "Okay, here's what you were doing." And you're sitting there: Wow. I'm smarter than I thought.
-Powells.com interview

Edit: Here's the link. http://www.powells.com/authors/paolini.html. It's from an interview called "Philip Pullman, Tamora Pierce, and Christopher Paolini Talk Fantasy Fiction."

Love it! Link?

I could totally use this in my LTUE talk. And I'm also thinking it would be perfect to craft the talk around a dating theme, given that it's BYU and all.

I've edited the entry so it's linked above. How are you thinking to combine editing and dating? That sounds like a marvelously entertaining talk!
