Want to bring your manuscript closer to published, but don't want to drop thousands to hire an editor?

 In this episode, you'll learn to edit your story yourself. 

You'll get answers to common questions like:

Do I edit as I go? Or do I edit after the manuscript is done?

How do I edit for coherence and continuity?

Where do I begin?

In this episode, I’m going to give you a  4-step strategy for self-editing your story.  

We’re going step by step.

From the big picture all the way down to the sentence level. 

This 4-step strategy works at every stage of the drafting process.

You can use it with a finished manuscript. Or a work in progress.

Because this process will keep your story focused and on track. 

You'll learn to evaluate: 

• Story events as major actions, each with its own resolution;
• Chapters as self-contained, complete narrative units;
• Individual scenes and how they all fit in your overall story structure; and
• How to look at paragraphs and sentences for power and progression.
