Produktbeschreibung

"Jam-packed with great lessons and invaluable insight, Revise to Write is a resource you'll use time and again…It's truly a gem." - Seattle Book Review

Whether you choose the self-publishing route or a traditional publisher, good revision skills are essential for every writer. Publishers are looking for print-ready quality. They have little time or money to invest in editing. For the independent author, good revision skills are even more important when reviews for poor editing can kill book sales. But polishing your own work can be tricky. With Revise to Write, break down your manuscript into the macro and micro levels to get a thoroughly critical overview.

There's no point proofreading a manuscript that has major structural flaws. Start with the basic building blocks to make sure your foundation is solid. The Nuts and Bolts section helps you analyze your structure, plot and characters. Then work down to a scene-by scene review of dialogue, point of view, description, pacing and more. In the Nitty Gritty section, refine your prose with thoughtful line edits and tips for effective proofreading.

Includes checklists for each section, writing exercises to help you over trouble spots, resources for finding beta readers and other writing tools.
