David Farland teaches about editing at Life, the Universe, and Everything. February 2011.

Two months after this, I attended the workshop where Dave taught in-depth about the things he touched on in this presentation. Extremely useful workshop. Dave has temporarily stopped hosting workshops, but if he starts again I encourage any serious writer to attend. Well worth any expense. Dave is a real expert and an excellent teacher who sincerely wants to help his students. Visit his website at http://www.davidfarland.com.
