Work the editor's revisions
Takes an editor's tracked changes or revision request and produces a revised draft plus a point-by-point reply, distinguishing edits that improve the piece from those that dull the argument and warrant a counter-proposal.
In / outEditor's tracked changes/revision notes + current draft → revised draft + point-by-point reply with counter-proposals where warranted
You might say…
“The editor came back with changes. Some are right. Some would gut the argument. I need to know which is which before I respond.”
What it does
Takes the editor's tracked changes or revision request and the current draft and produces a revised version plus a point-by-point reply, distinguishing edits that improve the piece from those that dull the argument and need a counter-proposal. Used during the editorial back-and-forth before final submission.
Trigger: Use during the editorial back-and-forth to work revisions systematically without losing the piece's argumentative spine.
