*An inner editor is an entity of sorts that exists inside any creative person's mind. Anyone who has ever done a creative undertaking knows what I mean: it's that little voice in the back of your head that's constantly critiquing your work. For some people the criticism is worse than for others--Charles seems to be a fairly balanced individual, and I have no qualms about giving him the smackdown if he gets too uppity in his critique.
The odd thing is, before now I had always envisioned Javert (the person) as my personal inner editor...perhaps that was just my obsession with the character showing through, I dunno. Now that 'Charles' has been identified I can imagine that things could get a little tense between him and Javert (the latter is too used to having been alone for all this time).
So who's YOUR inner editor? It's taken me a couple of years to identify mine, but inner editors plague everyone. I don't think they all have names, and they certainly have differing personalities, but they're there... *Twilight Zone theme music*
