I've got 3 books out, the oldest is 4 years old, and still I find things in it that make me cringe. I think what happens is that we writers know our story intimately and after a while read what we think it is supposed to be as opposed to what is actually on the page.
I finally broke down and am paying for an outside editor for my next work. That will probably fix a lot of the little nagging things.
