Thanks @negativer! I'm so glad that even though you're a very experienced writer, you still got something from reading my post. And thank you for helping to make my point, that even highly experienced writers find that they need to edit for POV.
I think your approach is the best; go ahead and write the story, without fretting and fine tuning along the way. Then go back with your editor brain on. Trying to edit while you write can hamper the creative process. That's a great topic for a future workshop post!
