  • You are a writer who want a a polished manuscript before submitting to agents

ABOUT THIS ONDEMAND WEBINAR

You can type the words "THE END," but are you really done with your manuscript? You know you have to polish and perfect it before you share it with editors and agents, but how? How do you know what to keep, what to chuck, and what's going to bore, or charm, the reader? You can learn to edit your own work, and here's where to start.

In this presentation, you'll learn how to diagnosis the pitfalls of your own plot and pacing, the importance of the economy of language, and why more specific detail in your work can actually bore your reader to tears. You'll discover the importance of letting your book "marinate" after you type "THE END," and how to distinguish between the little voice inside that's self-doubt, and the little voice inside that's telling you where to revise. Through sample passages, both rough draft and revised, you'll see these editing skills at work.

Kate McKean works closely with her clients on editing their manuscripts before submission, so there's almost no editing pitfall she hasn't seen. Learn the secrets she's discovered after 10 years in the industry (and editing her own unpublished books herself, too!)

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:

  • How to listen to and trust your gut when revising
  • Why few readers care what color your character's hair is
  • How you should not say in 12 words what you can say in 5
  • The importance of distancing yourself from your work to gain perspective
  • How to Kill Your Darlings and save your manuscript
  • Why you can't just wait for an editor or agent to do all this work for you
  • When your manuscript is really, really done (at least for now)

A perfect natural glam mascara
Color: PLUM TWILIGHT, Size: 0.24 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have been searching for my ultimate, every day mascara for at least 10 years & I actually tried this one about 4 or 5 years ago (not in this shade though) and I remember it being a strong like at the time but not “the one”. Buuut this might be the one. Went on smoothly with minimal clumping. Elongated and curved my lashes upwards without using an eyelash curler. Held up for 9 hours in humid, sticky conditions and is still going strong. No flaking, smudging or transfer. I do wish the brush was different, or had longer bristles at least, but not enough to dock a star over. The plum shade is gorgeous and veers toward black in some lighting but has just enough color to enhance the eyes. It didn’t add a ton of volume, but enough to be noticeable and I actually prefer that because I have sensory issues with my eyes and that is why I sadly can’t do falsies. All in all, this is a 5 star, every day, natural glam mascara and now I want to try the green.

GOOD
Size: 5.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This wash is excellent. It provides powerful cleansing, helps reduce acne effectively, and leaves the skin feeling fresh. The foaming formula is easy to use and works quickly without being overly harsh. Overall, a very good product and highly recommended for acne-prone skin.

Clears breakout without playing around
Size: 5.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This face wash means business. It lathers up nicely and you can actually feel it working on your skin. After a few uses, my breakouts looked calmer and less angry, and my skin felt way cleaner overall. It can be a little drying if you overdo it, so moisturizer is a must, but if you’re dealing with stubborn acne, this one gets straight to the point. No fluff, just results.

Gave me hope again for my back acne
Size: 5.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’ve been struggling with acne on my back since I was a teen and I’m now in my 30s and still struggling. I had taken accutane (several times) and it was the only thing that has cleared me but it always came back. I decided that I’m not gonna risk potentially hurting myself over that medication again and consistently (no matter if I didn’t feel like it!) started washing my back with this every night (even if I didn’t wash my hair). I would leave it on for at least 5 minutes and then rinse it off, then moisturize. After a month this has been the CLOSEST to clear my skin has ever gotten besides accutane. I’ve tried virtually everything. I was honestly surprised, and although it’s not perfectly clear, it’s made a significantttttt difference. It’s worth a try if you plan to be serious about it. I wish I would have taken a before picture, I just didn’t have high expectations at first!!
