I worked with a freelance editor on a manuscript once, and it was a very valuable learning experience...I felt that it really helped me get a handle on my craft and the process of writing. With one-on-one attention, I learned a lot of things about how I approach writing and how I can do it better.<br /><br />I think one of the chief things I learned was that there is ALWAYS room for improvement and a way to get better. A completed draft is really just the beginning in making a manuscript ready to be sent out.Laura Bicklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02498043274943334697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7454222325290313520.post-7342220646962188002009-06-09T09:27:18.458-04:002009-06-09T09:27:18.458-04:00Thanks so much for this info - my critique group w...Thanks so much for this info - my critique group was just discussing this very issue so I'll direct them to this post.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05255908019822363456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7454222325290313520.post-68541847498686612312009-06-08T19:06:48.958-04:002009-06-08T19:06:48.958-04:00Thanks for this great post!

It's particularly important in today's publishing market. <br /><br />The two editors expressed many of my same approaches to editing, but they also brought up some new things for me to consider as well. Thank you for posting this.<br /><br />Allison M.
