Step Two...
Writing over? What’s next?
Get it right. Edit, Edit, Edit! Can’t say it enough.
Hiring a professional editor can cost anywhere from $2,000 to $8,000. If you can afford that, great. But not many authors can pay this. The alternative is to obtain an editing program online. There are many, some are paid and offer in-depth analysis of your work, education and more, others are free and are a good start. Here are some recommendations:

Book Assessment
​
Once you have done all you can, it's time to hire a professional book assessor. This can be done for under $1,000.00 and is a must before you put your book online. They will give you ways to improve your story, create more drama, action or emotion. There is a multitude of advice on writing techniques on youtube, etc. Search Google to find an assessor who specialises in the genre of your book.
Re-Write!
Be prepared to re-write many times. Your first draft is never the final. Books are not written in weeks, months or even years. If it's worth doing, do it well.
