Don’t forget to ask questions when you check in with your reviewers!
It’s important to know what they think about what they read. Don’t settle for a simple “It was good.”
If you don’t get positive feedback, don’t be discouraged. It helps to know what the reader was feeling. Is it just not their genre? Do they like reading? Is your book intended for a different age group? Was it organized in a manner they can’t follow?
Ask follow-up questions to make sure you have a good picture and don’t take anything personal.
Finish!
Did you get feedback from at least one reader? Good. Mission accomplished. Got all three? Superstar!
Day 30 is the final edit. Plan to re-read your novel while keeping in mind the feedback you got. You’ll make edits as you read and see typos or want to change things. Go on to Day 30.
Want an Example?
We’ve talked to two, our third didn’t get a chance to read. One of the two did a full edit. We will have to take the time to read through the edits they made.
