I'm delighted along with everyone else on the list to see
Lesley back in the daylight after her recent nasty weeks.
I'm also delighted to see that her account of the editor's
task - as seen from close up - is very much as I should
have described it myself. She confirms my earlier assertion
that real writers regard their own stuff as inviolable &
consent, only with reluctance, to trimming.
At no point does she suggest the deep, engaging dialogue
that Camille evidently carries on with her advisers.
