Today I am showing you the process I took to brainstorm and outline my second attempt at a debut novel. I'm brining in experts to guide me through this process of writing my first romance novel:
The editor I'm using for the third time: Dana: go.fiverr.com/visit/?bta=120456&brand=fiverrcpa&landingPage=https%253A%252F%252Fwww.fiverr.com%252Fdanaalsamsam%252Fedit-your-book-manuscript
The developmental editor I'm using for the first time: Cassandra- go.fiverr.com/visit/?bta=120456&brand=fiverrcpa&landingPage=https%253A%252F%252Fwww.fiverr.com%252Fcassvanvalk%252Fbeta-read-your-novel-ebook-or-article
I am doing something I have never tried before, I am bringing pro’s into my journey way earlier than most people would and I am documenting this experience to show how my experiments turns out and whether it is worth it.
The reason I’m bringing in expert feedback so early is twofold.
First, bringing in an editor works. Unless you're one of the rare writers who can craft a flawless manuscript without outside input, an editor is essential. Whether it’s an agent giving feedback or a publishing house editor refining your work, some level of editorial guidance is part of the journey from draft to published novel. Editors help spot blind spots and elevate your writing to the next level.
That’s because a fresh set of eyes can provide the objective feedback we often can’t see in our own work. There’s also this quote that says, "This could have been a great book if only the author had been willing to suffer more." That doesn’t mean writing shouldn’t be enjoyable—but it’s a reminder that while *done* is better than *perfect*, it shouldn’t come at the cost of quality. The key is finding the balance between finishing a book and making it the best it can be.
