Brandon Sanderson in lecture 13, Brandon's Revision Process (which is [online on his YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKHLuGyjRi8)), explains his process thus: 1. First draft 2. Continuity 3. Polish 4. Give to Alpha Readers ------------------------ **6 months break** ------------------------ 5. Work in Feedback from Alphas 6. Give to Betas 7. Work in Feedback from Betas 8. Polish I may have forgotten a step, but that is not important here (watch the video). What is important is that Brandon lets his manuscript rest for half a year to gain some distance from it that will allow him to better rewrite. And during this break, # he writes the first draft of the next book.
