Pat B,
I wish you great success as well.  Mine also needs a lot of work.  In my rush to get as much story down as possible I seem to have written part of it in third person and part of it in first person.  Besides fixing that I need to work on my dialogue.

I hear where you are coming from and I have great admiration for you if you are pulling it off.  I'm more of a plodder who has to tinker with things a little to get them right.  Even my newspaper work goes through a certain amount of revision before I turn it in for publication.

I have such a hard time going back
I just don't enjoy it.  I enjoy putting fresh words down, not looking at the stale ones.
