16. Self-Editing Your Novel (Writing for Success)

Well, today unfortunately we have to stop the blog posts from my series on Writing for Success (UPDATE: If you have come here from a link, you can read the first 15 articles by scrolling down the page). The reason? Of course I would like you all to buy the ebook! You feel cheated? I don't believe that. Thousands of you have read the posts so far and the feedback has been great. But, unfortunately the last ten of the twenty-five posts are only going to be available in the ebook.

When can you buy it? In about a week (NOW!!). And it's only going to be $0.99 $3.99. That really is nothing for anyone who takes writing seriously and who wants to write a successful novel. So, I am sure you'll understand my decision...

In the meantime, today there are a lot of goodies for you to look at. Firstly, let's take a look at the full contents of the upcoming ebook: How To Write & Self-Publish Your First Novel -
