Writing a book? You might think the next step after the first draft is to pay for editorial feedback or a developmental edit on the manuscript. But for memoir, particularly, it's more important that you learn how to structurally revise and develop the narrative so you can become a better writer. Most published authors I know (including myself) learnt techniques to objectively assess their own work so they didn't waste precious time, money and energy on paid critiques that wildly vary in understanding of the genre and don't actually deepen your understanding of how to develop the narrative yourself.
So today, I'm sharing the 6 stage process for revision that I teach inside Manuscript Finishing School, and why your synopsis and chapter outlines can prove pivotal in clarifying where you need to edit your draft.
