As a professional book editor, I’m a big believer that revisions are where the magic happens. But for many authors, the process of revising your novel can be downright painful — after all, you’ve put so much effort into creating this story, and the last thing you want to do now is unravel all of that hard work and rewrite your draft. In today’s video, I’m going to walk you through five steps you can take to make the editing process a little less daunting, so you can revise your novel painlessly and help it reach its full potential.
