If you're looking for ideas on what to do after you finish the first draft, there was a good podcast on 'Writing Excuses' on Beginnings. They talk about them from the perspective of you already have something written, now you're going back to make sure that it covers what it needs to. So, it seems quite appropriate.

I had these as clickable links, but the site keeps adding garbage characters, so, sorry, you have to cut and paste them:

  • http://www.writingexcuses.com/2008/03/02/writing-excuses-episode-4-beginnings/



And, if you're curious about how I edit, here's how I do it:

Also, here's a guide I wrote (with lots of pictures so it takes a while to load) on using Critique Circle:

Good Luck.

Only the non-clickable links are working......which I, for one, find strange.
Also, I posted in the join the journey thread a few days ago and my name's on the list......but I have no clue where to go as of now. I don't have a login or anything, or do I use my NaNo login? -So confused- I was looking for anyone who still hung around the forums and might know so I could ask!

I'm not sure what's up with the links, they worked once, then won't. (So I made them all not links)

There is a thread for the Journey.

This thread is focusing on 'After the First Draft'
