Reader’s Recommendations Addressed

Today, I completed revising the manuscript based on my proposal to address recommendations contained in the Reader’s Report received last month. About two and a half weeks of mornings were needed to make the changes.

I plan to read the manuscript through aloud (this is time consuming, but helps me to focus on the meaning of words and sentences, accuracy of factual statements, and writing style) before sending it to my editor. In my experience, repeated readings are extremely helpful in sharpening the stories.
