Keep Trudging Through

At some point in the revision process, you just have to keep on trudging. Meaning you've fixed all the typos, plot inconsistencies, clunky sentences or even POV discrepancies. But you keep trudging though it anyway, because every time you read it through you find something else to fix regardless of how thorough you thought  you were the first half dozen times you read through it.

With Killer of Killers and The Vase, I couldn't tell you how many times I read through them, polishing up the prose, and finding clunkers here and there. But every time I did, I found more to fix. And you may as well. The manuscript only improves every time  you do, and of course you want that. It's like a maturation process. You're writing evolves, and of course, it becomes better.

So if you want your writing to be better, keep improving it. Start with what you've already written, and make it better. Then go to the next one, and the next, and you get the point.
