When you have completed your novel or short story, put it away for a at least a couple of days before you do anything with it. Read a book, start on another project or go on a holiday, but drive your finished product from your mind. Then, in a few days time, return with a fresh mind to your completed manuscript and read through it. Only now should you contemplate editing or rewriting.

It can be difficult to read your own work with a fresh mind! Must try your advice!
