In order to bring any idea to life, editing is such a crucial and empowering step. Through editing, we can turn the incomplete into the polished and the insufficient into the impactful. Here, we may fully express our creative selves.
It takes guts to edit. It entails examining our work objectively and eliminating extraneous details to highlight the core. As writers, we must kill our darlings—eliminating even our favorite lines if they are unfocused or meandering. It entails removing layers as visual artists in order to clarify the focus. Because it requires reducing the work to its purest, most real form, this can be traumatic. However, the reductive heat transforms the rawness into resonance.
Editing requires discipline and care. To bring the pieces together into a cohesive whole requires perseverance and patience. Each adjustment is a conscious decision made to benefit the piece and its viewers. Editing allows us to create detail and mold a narrative.
Editing ultimately helps artists gain confidence in our work. It fosters the growth of taste and judgment. We get more confident in our abilities with each round of review and improvement. We begin to identify weak spots and figure out how to strengthen them. We grow more selective about what to include and what to leave out. We develop more quickly the more we edit.
Accept editing as a creative process in and of itself. To reveal the light of expertise, do not be reluctant to make significant changes. Spend some time making sure that your work shines. Use editing to take your work to new levels you would not have imagined possible when you first started. Let it free up the creativity you possess.
