Joyce Sweeney's Revision Workshop

[mindyalyse]

Here's part one of my notes from Joyce Sweeney's revision workshop. Besides the gems in the beginning, she gave us a checklist of sixteen areas to explore during revisions. The first five are listed below, and I'll blog about the rest of her tips later this week

I love checklists! I'm looking forward to the next dollop....

Thanks, Laurie. I had hoped to put them all in one post, but between the length and lack of time today, splitting them seemed like the best way to do it. I can't believe how many pages of notes I still have to type up!

I have my critique group meeting most of the time my girls are in school tomorrow, and family coming over at night, so I'm hoping to type up the rest of the my notes on Thursday or Friday.

You're welcome, Kristy. The second post will be over the weekend or on Monday. I have a huge to-do list tomorrow, but I'll definitely get to it as soon as possible. I really could use five or more extra hours in each day!

You're welcome, Karen! I have about ten more pages of notes to type up--hopefully over the weekend. I'd love to post part 2 by mid Monday.

Thanks for sharing. This is such great stuff to be reminded about. When you don't have the opportunity to go to workshops or have a crit group, postings like this are really appreciated.

You're welcome. I'm a total conference addict, and love being able to share my notes (especially when I'm allowed to share all the details...most conferences only allow you to give the highlights so you don't give away an entire presentation).
