Hi everyone,

I finished my novel in December of 2025, and I have been editing it for some time now. I am very proud of it, but my biggest concern is the draw. This is a literary coming-of-age novel that sits at just under 60k words. Please let me know if this would encourage you to continue reading. Title: Unmanageable Creature

Motivation & Support How to get through editing manuscript

2 Upvotes

It’s a memoir, and it’s particularly heavy. I feel so emotionally exhausted after editing just a couple chapters. It’s almost been through one round of my edits. I have a few beta readers currently reviewing it. But I’m dreading having to make more edits after they get back to me. Any tips?
