Edits Take Two

It’s that time again. Second edits for my two demon books have hit my email. So now I have to dive into those redline edits and clean up my books. There is something so satisfying about reading through the manuscript for another time and finishing the line changes. Tweaking it and making sure it is good to go – or as good to go as it can be before I send it for final proof.

And it does amaze me that each time I read my stories, I find things to change for the better. Some might get annoyed at editing and editing again, but I look at it a different way. When I wrote the story and rewrote the story and added scenes and edited and edited again, I was in a different frame of mind each time. That means I notice different aspects of the story. Maybe this time it is all about character and the next it’s about plot. Ultimately that helps strengthen the story.

So it’s time to finish this blog and get to editing!
