281. How To Know When Your Piece is Finished


Listen Later

How do you know when your piece is done? I am often asked this question and there are no clear answers. After months of writing and revising how do you know your book, essay, and articles are solid and ready to send to editors?

In this episode we discuss the signs to watch for that indicate you have reached The End--part intuition, part copy blindness, and even some satisfaction--and the practices you need to perform before sending out the final document.
