Today, I worked on editing my novel.
This is the second time I’m reading it now in less than a month, so I’m moving through it a lot quicker. At this point, it isn’t necessarily worth it to read every single word so closely. I’m more looking for the moments that I called out as confusing during my read of it in non-linear order. The thing I’m mostly realizing is that I can’t trust readers to remember things from 30 pages ago. I cant just reference things, I have to explicitly restate them. At least, that’s what I think I need to do. Hard to say until I actually create, then read, a second draft.
How were you creative today?
Love and gratitude, as always.
