Almost forty years ago I wrote a book about wedding photography. It took about a year to write. Today, it probably would have been finished in 30 days. Yes, days.

The problem back then was that I was using a typewriter. With a typewriter I had to be very careful about what I said. Making a mistake was a big deal. Eliminating or changing a word, sentence, or paragraph was a nightmare. I remember retyping a page or worse yet retyping a chapter…because of an edit I made.

It doesn’t matter what computer you’ve got or what word processor you use…making a change is really easy today.
