"I don't recall the dream, but I woke up drenched in a cold sweat, only to realize I spelled 'receive' correctly after all."
That was the wiseass answer I shot back to a retired high school English teacher and current part time editor after he asked, "As a writer, what do you dream of?"
"So what do editors dream of?" I parried.
"Commas gently rocking in hammocks strung between dangling participles."
I love working with this guy.
