The Value to the Writer and the Reader in Just One More Edit


by Katy Kauffman @KatyKauffman28

I didn’t want to upload it one more time. After nine scroll-through’s and uploads of my e-book to Kindle’s publishing platform, I didn’t want to fix my book again. Couldn’t it just be done? Couldn’t I get away with not fixing that spacing that I had somehow missed?

I knew the answer was no. And for good reason—to make my book the best it could be. Every hour I had spent formatting paragraphs and endnotes, every minute I had carefully scrolled through the whole book, every second of patience was worth the end result.
