The Art of the Edit
You've typed The End on your novel manuscript and rejoiced with the Happy Dance. Congratulations! Then you take another look and begin banging your head against the desk. Your precious baby isn't ready to send out into the wide world of publishing. Too raw. Too immature. It's time to buckle down and edit, edit, edit. Where do you start and what do you examine and revise in order to buff that sparkle into your wonderful work-er, potentially wonderful work? This little handbook, The Art of the Edit: Shaping and Sculpting Your Novel, offers valuable tools in reaching your goal of a manuscript that is refined, fit, and feisty.
