Okay, I didn’t care too much for getting my essays or other papers back with red marks, but I don’t have anything against the red pen or pencil. I actually keep several around when I’m revising my chapters.  I discovered that the revision part of the writing process is actually the best part. The hard part is getting the story down. Once you have the story, print out your hard copy, sit back with a red pen or pencil and let your characters start talking.

A few weeks ago, I discovered The Blood-Red Pencil blog.  Several editors guest blog, leaving their various tips and sometimes gripes about the editing process. I encourage you to subscribe.
