What
did you edit out
of this book? In Chirp,
I edited out a ton of stuff. Over 10,000 words! In first drafts, I
just write, write, write. Once I’m finished, I go back and cut,
cut, cut.
Turns
out, I write a lot of stuff that isn’t needed. I’m talking things
that don’t move the story forward. When I’m writing the rough
draft, I don’t pick up on those things, but once I reach “The
End” and read the story from start to finish, that useless
information jumps out at me.
When
the beta readers get a hold of it, sometimes they point out even more
places I need to trim. I do keep the deleted scenes in case I want to
use them as a teaching tool for other writers.
In
True,
I didn’t cut as much. Maybe because it was the second book in the
series, and I was more familiar with the territory. Or, maybe I just
loved Chirp and Rance so much I didn’t want to end their story!!
