About the notebook
A workshop for returning to a draft
Notes on clear drafts, useful labels and the work of revising a short text.
What belongs here
Seven readings about the purpose, structure and revision of a useful short text.
The examples describe ordinary editorial choices. They are explanations to compare with your own work, rather than reports about a particular service or organisation.
How to read the collection
The home page offers three starting points and the notes index lists every reading. Each article includes a short contents list, a practical takeaway and links to its neighbours. Choose one question and return to the index when it changes.
A modest publication
The collection uses ordinary HTML, a local style sheet and small local illustrations. No account or script is needed. The same pages support a narrow screen, larger text and the device light or dark preference.
