Rewrite, Revise, Revisit: A Guide to Editing Your Book
Have you finished a first draft? Congratulations! Now the fun begins.
Every writer knows that editing is the most important part of the writing process. This is where all the really important, meaningful work happens.
It’s where you have the most control, and the ability to really carry out your intentions and make this into the kind of book you set out to write in the first place.
In this class I’m going to give you a toolbox for approaching every edit, and every revision, of your book, including:
- What you can do in the early stages of editing
- What’s better to leave for the final stages
- How to handle the edits you get back from your editor
- What happens in the copyediting and proofreading stages
This class is for anyone who has finished a first draft, whether it’s fiction, nonfiction, memoir, an essay collection, a how-to guide—no matter what kind of book you’re writing, a top-notch edit will get it ready for publication.
You can take this class now on Skillshare, which is a Netflix-style platform for online classes. This link gives you a free trial.
This class pairs well with Write Your First Draft.
You can also take my writing classes on Udemy, where you pay per class for only the classes you want to take. I’ve bundled this class with another course of mine, Write Your First Draft, and renamed the whole package Finish Your Book. You can take them both together for one affordable price.
