Round One Edit Complete

Author Jackie AshendenPosted on June 18, 2010Categories finishing, wip, editing12 Comments on Round One Edit Complete

Okay, so I’ve finished the first edit of my wip. Still no word from the ed on whether she likes chapters 2 and 3. I had planned not to touch it until I heard from her but couldn’t keep away. Anyway, it’s done now and it’s in better shape than the first time round. Wondering … Continue reading “Round One Edit Complete”

For the Love of Editing

Author Jackie AshendenPosted on February 21, 2010Categories editing10 Comments on For the Love of Editing

I love editing. There, I’ve said. I love editing and I don’t care who knows it.

Having a grumpy ‘I hate waiting’ day today. Also a ‘my mansucript sucks and is boring’ day. There’s lots of emotion in there – I’m actually wondering if there’s too much! – but it still feels boring! Maybe I’m too close. Maybe I need to put a car chase in there to liven things up. … Continue reading “Having a Whinge”

Three Cheers for Editing!

Author Jackie AshendenPosted on August 17, 2009Categories editing10 Comments on Three Cheers for Editing!

No, that’s not sarcasm you hear. I’m actually being serious. Yep, I have been dreading editing this hideous story and yet, now that I’m in the middle of it, I’m actually quite enjoying it. Of course, I’ve only done the first half. It’s the second I should be worried about. Now, I had a really … Continue reading “Three Cheers for Editing!”
