""No matter how good you think your first draft is, chances are it isn't ready for the world to see. Chances are it isn't ready for anyone to see. Every first draft needs editing. Every second and third draft also need editing. It doesn't matter whether you're Margaret Atwood, Stephen King or Jane or John Doe. You want your book, poem, article, essay or script to be the best expression on the page of your vision for it. That's what this book is about: to provide you with the practical tools and tips that will refine the raw clay of your idea into the finished work it deserves to be...that you deserve it to be. But it's about more than that. The 'heartful art of revision' is a groundbreaking approach to editing that applies the same intuitive skills I teach about writing to a process that has traditionally focused on the analytical. Most people say 'write from the heart, edit from the head.' I say 'write from the heart, edit from the heart.' Turn the page and I'll show you how!""
