Publisher's Summary

Have thirty minutes? That's all you need...

Requirements are: a notebook, a pencil, and a functioning brain.

Writing is your dream career. We know exactly how you feel. Hand cramps are well worth it when you're spending several months fleshing out an amazing story. Therefore fast, simple editing is what you seek.

  • Do you like writing exercises? There's plenty inside...
  • Enjoy seeing examples? Look no further. We have them...
  • How about easy and straight-to-the-point explaining? Well, we've got your back!

Editing your manuscript is no easy task, especially if you're self-publishing. Whether it's fan fiction, your first novel, or a blog post, we all try to do our best with this process. This book covers the overall content of novels. Learn how to edit your novel by taking the rough draft and turning it into a polished book, which would be ready for your audience.

You'll get the kinks out of your manuscript, like repeated words and unnecessary scenes.

Table of contents:

  • Intro
  • Chapter One: Review Your Content with a Fine-Toothed Comb In this chapter we discuss going over the draft in such a way that you feel like a reader and not the author. Distance yourself from your work, and breathe before picking up the pen and editing.
  • Chapter Two: Overall StructureTitle says it all. Focusing on the structure instead of just bits and pieces will help you get an overall feel for the story. Remember, you know your story front and back, but your readers don't. Put yourself in their shoes.
  • Chapter Three: Clarity and Prose Be clear. Audiences from all around the world may read your book; they need to understand what you're saying. And what is prose exactly? In this audiobook we discuss what it is and how to use it.
