I don't think any of us has the exact same editing process. Like a fair number of people like me (the "plotters") might be patient enough to finish the manuscript, and then edit. Hahaha. Yeah right, Grammar Nazi me is going to wait. That manuscript won't even know what hit it. It's gonna be like, "WHOA two seconds ago I had a prologue... not the adverbs and adjectives! MY MODIFIERS! Oh God, it burns! IT BURNS!"
My first edits are always akin to assaulting Microsoft Word. :) How about you?
Haha, oh those modifiers...
ReplyDeleteYeah, my first round of edits is usually brutal. It hurts to delete those carefully (or maybe not so carefully) written words, but it needs to be done.
Have fun!
