Writing for online
I am nearing the 6th or is it 7th edit of my duology which will be my first foray into online publishing. One of the things which makes me nervous is letting editing mistakes end up online, hence all the editing I am doing. With every run through I change things and if I go on long enough, I fear I might end up with version 1 - just joking.
The editing has improved the works immensely and like most editing, it is about cutting. Then again, I was once at a conference where an editor pleaded for writers to make their meaning clear and that advice really struck a chord.
I think I get hung up on concise sentences and forget the reader might do better with more explanation; after all, it is all about the reader understanding and enjoying the story.
