What should I keep in mind when reviewing and improving already published chapters?
I began writing a fantasy novel as a "last week of vacation fun project", and it hit off very well. *It is my first time writing*. I'm publishing as a web novel in a popular webnovel site.And of course the first chapters have several points that I think I can improve now, reading back on them.Things I'd like to do on the previous chapters:* Some descriptions are lacking, or entirely missing.* There are some scenes that I think should use greater detail.* There are elements I will need later on, and if they are introduced earlier it would flow more naturally.I am currently writing 4k words a day, and the new ideas for pushing the story forward are ok.But I am (weakly) afraid that leaving these things for later will just make them pile up.What should I do, and how should I do it? Are there good techniques / best practices for reviewing past work? Should I leave sleeping lions lie?
Hi! This is a great question. It never hurts to look back on past work to look for ways to improve. It can also help to have an objective pair of eyes take a look at your writing. I am an experienced editor and writing tutor, and I would be happy to take a look at your current or previous writing. Feel free to send me a message and we can talk more about the details--hope to hear from you soon!
