So, I've gotten the edits and comments back from my first beta reader, endured the tortuous pain of having to read through the ripped apart shreds of what was once my book, and have now come to terms with "okay, I see where she is coming from.Now it's time to change it."
Is it best to take these edits from the first reader and put them into action before I send it to a second beta reader, or should I just leave it as-is? There was no large problems like plot holes or issues with characters (YAY!) just problems with the amount of repetition and fat I have that is slowing my book down in certain words and sentences. Would changing something like this that I now see is a big issue before showing it to another beta reader be a huge no-no? Or will it be better to make this changes as I go instead of waiting for it to pile up with 5+ beta readers?
Thanks!
