That leads to a question, what would it be like if they would?

oopsalittle says,

I think it's gotta be a good thing they don't!

jl333 says,

And why not??

a little self editing goes a long way :D

oopsalittle says,

I guess I should say I write many many memoirs on all sorts of surfaces! but submit only a few - yep I'm thinking that self editing takes a bit of self discipline or perhaps I could do with a little more confidence and just post!

favepeep says,

I self-edit as well; since I began @ Smith, I've averaged about 1 1/2 memoirs each day. Every thought I have isn't memoir worthy or even thought worthy!

canadafreeze says,

So very true. I write on pads, stickie notes, and any number of surfaces, and many thoughts stay "as is". Self editing, indeed.

Dhani says,

Thank God! I mean, where in cyberspace would there be room to post them?...(smile)

lillybrook says,

Yes, but the ones that do are fantastic.

Loon says,

bring em on, Oooopsie.....no filter necessary

Dragonflower says,

Sometimes I laugh at some of the ones I think of! I call them my "what are you doing" memoirs. Like: "Opening refrigerator door. Must make list." "Walking downstairs takes all my concentration" or "Chocolate stains from eating while reclining." haha. Lon is right, as long as you are having fun, post away. There is always delete!

Dragonflower says,

*um, Loon is right* sorry, typo.
