I LOVE Revision Week.
Today Edgar-nominated author Bruce Hale talks about the trickiness of knowing when you’re done revising: “When I can’t find anything else to tinker with, and I have that general feeling that if I mess with it much more, the entire souffle will collapse in a soggy heap — that’s when I know it’s the final draft.”
Yesterday, New 
York Times Bestselling author Laura Griffin shared that even after 11 award-winning books across several tension-filled series, revision is still no walk in the park. And yet she does what needs to be done: “Cutting scenes always feels drastic to me. I try not to get hung up on all the time I spent creating something that ends up on the cutting room floor, but that’s the way it goes sometimes.”
