Should your developmental edit contain a line edit? Understand when to use developmental and line edits to improve your manuscript. #DevelopmentalEdit #LineEdit #EditingTips staceycarroll.org/intermediate...
I don't really think of myself as a writer, certainly not a creative writer, but I'm feeling some writer's block just trying to come up with the perfect lines to suggest to an author during a #LineEdit! I'm glad it's only an idea to get them to think of alternatives, because this is hard.
I love adverbs! Any advice saying Never Use Adverbs is wrong and stupid. A lot of great all-purpose words are adverbs and you don't even know it. Some prepositions are also adverbs! But also...if you use too many of them, your prose will suffer. It's all about moderation. #amediting #lineedit
Classic canned writing advice can often be ignored or applied with nuance, but sometimes it's literally just "show, don't tell." Unless you're writing board books, your readers aren't babies! They don't need to be spoon fed. Too much telling insults their intelligence. #amediting #lineedit
Hi authors! If you see this, it's your sign to go through your manuscript and see if your characters are always beginning to do things instead of just doing them. It is really important for your hero to "start to walk toward the palace" or can he just "walk toward the palace"? #amediting #lineedit
Favorite made-up word in my current line edit: agog-ment. (Trust me, it works!)
