www.instagram.com/reel/DQbqLcc... I've been reeling over on Insta about common things to tackle when self-editing. @jerichowriters.bsky.social

If you've been working on a novel for a while and feel determined that ✨next year✨ will be the one when you get it into readers' hands, you're probably facing a challenge that's common to every author: self-editing your book. Why do we self-edit? So we can spot errors and issues in our own work - and polish them away! - before we share that work with agents, publishers or readers. In this reel @debialper, co-tutor of our best-selling Self-Edit Your Novel course, explains four things you'll definitely need to consider as you go through your manuscript again. 1 in 6 students who've studied on the course in the past fourteen years have gone on to publish their books - so her advice is well worth bookmarking! 🔗 Want to join us when the next Self-Edit Your Novel course starts in January?
