C. S. Lewis - His Practical Advice for Writers

VelocityWriting.com - C. S. Lewis wrote over 30 books, including the beloved Chronicles of Narnia series. But he wrote mostly books for adults. After all, he was an English Literature Professor at Oxford University in England, and later at Cambridge.

He had some very definite rules for writing. He wrote a letter in response to a young fan with eight rules, and I comment on them in this video.

You've poured your heart into your fiction or nonfiction book. Your first draft is complete and you’re anxious about getting feedback before you embark on your final draft. Is getting feedback from your mom or an instant expert “beta reader” you found on Facebook going to crush you or be helpful?

Developmental or Substantive editing is an integral part of the professional publishing world. It’s an in-depth assessment of your first draft. It is “beta reading” on steroids.
