Weaknesses vs Strengths

After 30 seconds of careful consideration I've decided to answer this question the way I would if I were being asked by someone in real life. I hate contrived writing so more often than not I think my own answers feel rehearsed but honestly it's just me being contemplative.

My weaknesses are all related to patience with the editorial process. I despise finding and correcting errors myself, but doubly so when someone else finds them.

If I didn't know better I'd think we get egoistic about anything we create because it feels intensely personal. I'm way to into to commas and it has nearly led to fights when someone spots another misuse and says something like, "another comma huh?" Like I went ahead of them reading and intentionally added that comma after the last one bugged them. If I had those kinds of powers I'd be fighting crime.

My strengths, I write about so many subjects that I have to say versatility. A good trick for that is having a strong enough voice to research while you write without it becoming obvious. I might come off as an expert on more subject material than I should but the trick to that is being thorough in your studying. Is my writing actually any good? Who knows? I guess my readers like my books, if it turns out they just like me that's okay too.
