Work with an experienced editor.
From time to time, you can find yourself so immersed in your work that you may lose perspective. An outside voice can keep you focused on the truth you are trying to tell.
You may not know if you are actually producing the impact you desire, until a knowledgeable editor offers an honest evaluation. Your editor can help you recognize when your book is ready for publication—when the characters are properly defined, the plot arc is adequately developed, and the settings are clearly described.
