Thought you were done editing . . .Nope! Just didn't want to overwhelm you with the editing process.
Recap. The 1st round of editing looked for spelling, grammar, and punctuation issues with your novel. The 2nd round of editing check for consistency of characters and storyline.
So, what is this last round of editing for? Story flow. Does your novel flow flawlessly? Is it readable from start to finish without causing the reader to scratch their head? Does it make the reader want to not put it down because they want to know what's going to happen next?
Yes, all of that is important! All of that is the difference between a great novel and something used to keep the coffee table even on an uneven floor.
Again, you want someone with editing experience to complete this round of editing so that you get the necessary feedback to make your novel great!
Once this last round of editing is complete, you have acquired your ISBN and barcode, and have a cover for your book, the next step is . . . Formatting your novel.
We'll talk about that next time!
Until then . . .
Happy Editing!
