So important and so difficult. For me, this is one area where (I tell myself) perfection is always another revision or two away…yet never achieved because of deadlines. But if there were no deadlines, I would never “finish” anything.
This is so true. Putting the pencil down is so tough, and deadlines force us to do that! As my rewrite of a published abstract shows, it can always be better. The key is at least going through and making these edits while you have time.
These are great suggestions! Thank you!
Glad it's helpful!
