Editing is a mixed bag among writers. For some, it’s the most daunting part of the process, something to be dodged and feared. For others it’s the best part, where they can finally fix their draft, perfecting their work into what they envisioned all along. Ideally, we look at all aspects of a piece when we edit: correct grammar and spelling; check facts; appraise the style; and if it’s fiction, evaluate the plot. There is one important element that is easy to overlook, however, and that element is flow.
