Step Away Before Revising
Take a break after writing your draft. Distance gives you a fresh perspective for editing.
Focus on Structure
Check your story arc, paragraphs, and sentence flow. Ensure the narrative makes sense and engages readers.
Proofread for Grammar and Style
Use tools like Grammarly or ProWritingAid, but also read aloud to catch errors automated tools may miss.
Get Feedback
Ask trusted peers, teachers, or writing groups to review your work before submitting.
