Editing tip

Tip for quick and economical editing:

Make a list of all your "bad" words. Esp. "filter" words like felt, seemed, thought, realized, ect. Also make a list of your punctuation issues (I am very bad about getting my dialogue punctuation right.)

Do a "find" search for every word and issue you've listed. Check every example.

Remove/refine.

It won't catch everything, but it helps.
