End Game

For the past week, I have immersed myself in the process of revising my thesis. I learned while I can generate ideas and put them to prose, I need to continuously work on my editing skills. Suprisingly I'm enjoying the process. This process is writing in the end game. I want to research and read about how people put the finishing touches on their products. How did Van Gough know when his paintings were finished? What last word did Steinbeck add to the Grapes of Wrath? More importantly, who told them they were finished? I think this is what I talking about when I wrote about the enchiladas. Presentation is everything.
So, how do you know when the process is done?
Am I boring you?
Who are you?
