3rd Annual ReviMo - Revise More Picture Books Challenge
January 10th-16th, 2016
Got picture book drafts piled up collecting dust? Have critiques for your story, but haven't done a SINGLE thing to improve it? Need a jumpstart to revise? ReviMo is for you!
Each ReviMo, you will be encouraged to REVISE those picture book manuscripts. There will be blogs, graphics (and perhaps vlogs) encouraging you to take out that poopy first (second, third, fifteenth) draft and breathe new life into it. I hope you will join us!
How do you ReviMo, you ask?

the honor system) January 10-16th. Those of you who revise 4+ days will

What counts as REVISING? Making significant and thoughtful changes to a Picture Book Manuscript. If you go through and change a few words that doesn't count! I want you to stand your manuscripts on their heads, twirl it around and get that outstanding story out! (check out Laura Ruby's post for more thoughts on what revision is and isn't!)
