In this unit, we’re focusing on the editing process. To get practice with the concepts we will cover, you’ll need a story that you’ve written to edit.
This story might be a work in progress or one that you finished long ago but want to rework. You’re welcome to use a short story or a chapter from a novel.
Your Assignment
Go ahead and spend some time looking for the story you will edit this week.
Whichever story you choose, make sure it is self-contained. It should has a clear beginning and end, and you should be able share it with someone without giving a lot of backstory.
Your story should be at least 1,000 words long, and I recommend choosing something around 3,000 to 5,000 words.
Once you select your story, click here to move on to the next lesson.
