I think my biggest thing is that I am doing a lot of hack, slash, and burn in my editing, whacking out large chunks of stuff that just doesn't work and either rewriting it, or just completely removing it, and yet the story still gets bigger. That just seems so counterintuitive to me. You would think that if you're subtracting a lot of things from the book because you told too much or got too wordy in sections that it would actually grow. Yes, I'm adding in a few areas here and there, but it never seems like I'm actually adding *THAT* much. That's why it seems so weird.
