Welcome to Nth Draft!

"Quite the unusual name, can you even pronounce it in one go?"

Yes, I thought about it, and yes, I tried to say it five times in a row and failed. But we are not here to "say it out loud five times real fast," are we?

My dear reader, nothing you read comes to you as its first draft:

My dear writer, you know that already.

What you read is the 'Nth draft' the writer and the editor(s) produced after much review and rewriting. Most pieces may not go beyond that first draft, that pristine stage of chaos-and-order, both finished and unfinished at the same time; or as I would like to call it, the Schrodinger's Draft.

At first glance, the writer or editor might not know how many drafts it would take for a piece to be ready for the reader. It could be the third draft or the 17th; we may never find out unless we begin.

So, we begin with Schrodinger's Draft, working through everything from plot holes to periods, and end our process with the Nth Draft. It is my job to be there with you, guiding, collaborating, and constructively criticizing, to create that Nth Draft of your first.

Shall we?
