Non-Fiction: All Edits In – It’s ProWritingAid Time

After the coaching yesterday, I probably should have gone back to the fiction today, but I want to get this non-fiction out as quickly as possible, and the finish line for that project is much more clear, so I skipped back to it.

Today, I got all of the remaining edits typed in to Scrivener. I’ve also taken the plunge with ProWritingAid, buying a lifetime subscription (through Joanna Penn’s affiliate link) and have started to try to figure out how to use that software for the next pass of my book. There’s a little bit of a learning curve here, but even as I’ve been trying to figure out the settings, it has already identified a few issues for me.

Unfortunately, I got to start using PWA right at the end of today’s writing session, which means that I barely got to play with it at all. That’s annoying with any bit of new gear, but I’ll have to tackle it again later this weekend.

Once I go through that pass, I’ll read the book out loud for my final editing pass, then it will be time for all the joy of formatting and creating the bonus materials!

Take part in the journey!
