I think the reason that there are so many massive egos amongst writers is that you have to deal with huge amounts of rejection and ridicule, so only the big egos survive. Or the ones that are too drug-munted, or drunk, to care, Hunter S Thompson style.

Though the most fun part about sub-editing something is cutting something apart and putting it back together like a pastiche. I like to think I make stories better by doing this, but reading all these comments is making me think that the authors might not agree...
