My enjoyment of writing, my productivity, and the quality of my work improved tenfold when I started embracing slumps and taking them as an opportunity to read everything I could get my hands on, watch lots of films and shows, go to the theatre, play games, hang out with friends, visit new places, and generally absorb life and marinate my brain in the art of storytelling.

Take from that what you will.

What’s the best editing tip you have?

Retype the whole thing.

Seriously.

Like open a fresh doc, put it side by side with the first draft, and start retyping every sentence.

At first you are writing it word for word, but eventually you start to see how clunky a paragraph is, what its missing, what would sound better, and boom. Before you know it you’ve got a solid 2nd draft to work from.

After that, edits get a lot easier.

(This is my experience anyway. It has helped me so much)
