I love writing but I hate editing. Why can’t it just be perfect on the first try 💔

Editing is my favoriteeee part. I don't outline or anything beforehand so my first pass is messy and usually like half as long as the final draft will be. And then after that when I'm copyediting, it's like I'm reading the story for the first time. Maybe someday you'll find a writing partner who enjoys all your most hated bits cause that changes the GAME
