Our Summer Blueprint Sprint is not just for writers working on new ideas. It's effective for writers working on revision, too. This post explains why and shows you how.
I am currently drafting the manuscript of the nonfiction book I started planning during the last summer Blueprint challenge (was that 2022?). I have four draft chapters due tomorrow (!) to my editor for some feedback on tone, structure within chapters, etc. It's interesting to go back and see what has and hasn't changed from the original conception of this project.
I recently signed up for the blueprint sprint. I'm knee deep in a memoir and thought I was close to being finished, but the damn book keeps changing! I've found these emails (and the workbook, etc) to be incredibly helpful so far. Spent yesterday writing my why -- even that has changed. but an incredibly useful set of tools, including this post on revision. I'm somewhere between being stuck and needing to revise!
Using this method now!

Ohhh fascinating!!!! Good luck!
I don’t think I’m receiving the emails. Early in I made sure that the toggles were “on”. Any suggestions?
