Every poet needs to edit; good editing makes for good poems, it's an indispensible skill. But most poets, when they start out, hate editing to death.
 
This is a perfect lesson for those who go in fear or defiance of the editor, but also for any poet starting to write. Bust the myths and the bad attitudes. Transform your poems with solid editing techniques. See editing as positive, creative and fun, and learn how to do it well.
