  5. @cmurcray @sarahockler I'm with you - I like a little more time/distance to see it with fresh eyes. #kidlitchat [And on that, g'night all!]
  6. @mardouledger sometimes I revise in multiple rounds, going through the mss for a small # of elements ea. time. helps w/flow #kidlitchat
  7. @paulgreci Sounds like good way to go! I know critique groups can sometimes cut! cut! cut! til revision loses some of mc's voice #kidlitchat
  8. @debbieohi @jeanie_w hello ladies! :) #kidlitchat
  9. @bonnieadamson perhaps! Though I must admit, I haven't read Bird by Bird in a very long time. would she do whole novel that way? #kidlitchat
  10. @mardouledger I think if you have a planned revision, it's harder to revise for the worse. Just be careful of killing ur voice. #kidlitchat
  11. Probably not the best method for a full length novel though! #kidlitchat
  12. In college I used to print my thesis papers, cut into paragraphs, shuffle &arrange back into the order I thought they should go. #kidlitchat
