books
has anyone here wrote a fictional book? i'm on my second draft of debut novel and needs some tips on editing.
@abeerajafrani I haven't wrote a book myself, but I hope others who have could give some tips 💜

Hii! that is exciting. I would just be careful with having people here edit because a lot of the platforms to share can risk sharing personal details and offsite contact is against the guidelines as well as if you plan on publishing these books, the books can lead back to you which would not be good! I recommend if you want someone to edit or proofread your writing to look for writing communities!
Heyy! Yes I have totally done what you are doing. Whenever I get more freetime, I will for sure be doing it again. It helped me SO MUCH.
In the meantime, I agree with what Remina said... joining writing groups for edits is super helpful! Though I am finding it annoying to constantly change every little story detail just to keep privacy as a top priority lol.
If nothing else.... its very theraputic to just write it all out privatly.
Then when I feel the need to share, I go through and change the details that I need to such as time frames, scenic views, names, character traits, ect.... before I ever let strangers read it. Including potential publishers, other writers, or even friends & family!
With all that being said, woohoo!! Yaayyyy! A fellow writer is amoung us! Lol 🤩
