I'm done.

Like, I literally put in my very last edited manuscript, the last manuscript from Cynthia.

Because I was...

Tired of looking at the manuscript because you get to a point where you're no longer objective.

You're just so immersed in your work that you're like, I don't even I'm not even objective anymore.

I'm just so subjective while I'm reviewing my work for the 1000th time.

And the irony is I just finished my audio book.

I just finished the edits.

And as I was saying the words out loud, I was like, oh, why didn't I say that differently?

And then you can't say it differently.

It's an authority in written form.

But I think there's constantly an iteration.

Maybe you're never 100% satisfied, but you realize that...

You get to a point where you can't have those perfectionistic tendencies because I think that they can be destructive.

So I always say good is better than perfect.

And so I think this is the best work I've ever done.

But when I was doing the audio book, I was like, oh, I would have said that differently.

Sometimes when you say words out loud, they hit differently than when you write them.

No, analysis paralysis.

I think that happens to the best of us.
