About

 This Creative editing - how to revise your manuscript course offered by University of Cambridge will offer inspiring ways to kickstart the redrafting of such projects. We'll address key aspects of fiction writing - crafting convincing dialogue, writing scenes, conveying tone - and grapple with the way that larger factors, like plot and theme, can be adjusted and refined.
