I have spent a few days away from the book so that I can begin the edit with a relatively fresh pair of eyes. To me, redrafting is the first process after a manuscript is finished and involves making important and sometimes substantial tweaks and changes, as well as any major deletions. Editing is the second process and is minor in comparison, looking for small errors such as a 'had' instead of a 'has.' It also involves little tweaks and the deletion of unnecessary words, finely honing the book.
Very happy to see the first pre-orders of the Kindle edition of Song of the Sea have started to be made and looking forward to its release on the 2nd February very much.
