This is one of those things that shouldn't even be close to true, but sadly it is. It's always hard to give "the talk" to another author and say you, like me, need an editor for your work.

Does that make me like Socrates, realizing there's more that I don't know than what I do? Or is it more like Plato's cave? Hmm.
