Macroediting

The macroediting chapter of Bell is a good resource and something I’ll continue to use, particularly in editing for structural elements. I also liked the worksheet for this exercise. It focused attention on different elements while calling for our own ideas about each. I enjoyed applying them to Libby’s profile story – hope it was a little helpful!

Overall, I enjoyed the process of maroediting more than the micro. It’s not that I don’t get into fine tuning … pretty much can’t tear myself away, but I felt like I could be more helpful in looking at the bigger elements. Now to apply it to my own work …
