Apr 7	comment	What methods can I use to revise my writing? Thanks @Koen There is a lot of excellent advice here, but your 'algorithm' will be the most straightforward to apply. Have you used it? I will let you know how it goes.
Apr 4	comment	What methods can I use to revise my writing? @Kate The first time around, I have a nice outline with a logical flow, the second time around, the flow has been lost, and I am interested in knowing the steps and order of steps required to put Humpty back together again.
Apr 3	comment	What methods can I use to revise my writing? @Kate... I guess that this sounds easier to you than to me. I don't really know where to start or what order to work in. Any answer contained in the question is untested approach, so I came here for some expert advice. At this point, I think @John's answer is the closest to what I am looking for although most of the answers are helpful.
Apr 1	comment	What methods can I use to revise my writing? @John reading over my question, it explicitly states `My biggest challenges are putting the prose in the proper order and using topic sentences and transitions so that the reader can easily follow my train of thought.` This is what I need most help on.
Apr 1	comment	What methods can I use to revise my writing? @John Lauren's method applies at the level of sections and subsections, but some of the challenges that I face in occur with organization at the sentence and paragraph level. For example, the draft may cover the same topic in different locations. These need to be identified and consolidated. It may have sentences and paragraphs that need to move from one section or subsection to another or be fully deleted. Should they be deleted or placed in deep storage? By this point, I also have larger issues with making the paragraphs flow from one to the next. Maybe the answer is to get to work.
Apr 1	comment	What methods can I use to revise my writing? @John Lauren's answer is good, but does not provide me with a viable solution. First, it starts from before the first draft has been written, and second, it requires a specific software.I content - in some ways dependent on - my writing software (latex).
