Jerz > Writing > Revision vs Editing

If your writing teacher lets you revise your first draft, don’t just submit a cleaner, less-beat-up version of the same old sedan. Instead, take it apart, hold each piece in your hand, and make your second draft a pink monster truck, a time-traveling DeLorean, or a solar-powered jetpack. That’s revision.
