How to edit your own text?
Be ruthless, but don’t cut corners.
If you have a sentence that contains all of the following at once:
- a description of an action,
- a metaphor,
- another clarifying detail,
- another parenthetical phrase introduced by a dash,
then you should break it down into four sentences, depending on the flow of the action.
I was even editing yesterday without paying any attention to the #UFO events (Achtung Baby, #Spielberg) in #Moscow.
