Once again, revisions, revisions, revisions. I really thought I had nailed THE VASE when I began submitting it to publishers. Now, on the verge of receiving professional edits, I decided to go through it again, from start to finish over the weekend, and I have made a lot more revisions than I thought I would have. Mostly words and sentences, but one or two paragraphs had to be completely revamped, to both sound better, and make better sense. I'm on page 223 out of 323 pages. So a hundred pages to go, and then the real editing begins!
You are wise to revise, revise. By the time your editor works with you through two or three different edits, you will be able to recite those 300 plus pages in your sleep. Then you can sleep...until the senior editors take a long look at the finished manuscript. Nice site.
ReplyDeleteI can already recite them in my sleep...almost.
