A lighter piece today for #BookTube. I discuss editorial labour, and one big issue that holds writers back from telling their stories with the confidence necessary to find their audience.
Simply put: we're often so worried about being misunderstood that we try to spell out every aspect of our world/argument. In the process, we demonstrate no trust in our readers--or in ourselves.
A good editor can help with that, but they're not always easy to find! #WritingCommunity

And now, having posted this, I'm off to wrap up Stage 1 in an editing project today.
It's been a treat. 👌
Have a good one, CoSo!
