Hi Hive account@samsmith1971, I have to admit I was amazed at the difference it made the first couple of times I left a piece of work on the virtual shelf for a while before returning to it. I think of all the things you can do to improve a piece of writing that is the most powerful. On rare occasions I've even gone back to something I already considered to be finished and found in fact that I could easily improve it. Mind you, there are some very successful authors out there who don't do re-writes, so, as always, it's a case of horses for course. Glad you found the post interesting.
