It's a hard thing--cutting out all those beautiful words that sound so...perfect! My first book was 45,000 words. When I saw that middle-grade novels are 20-40,000 I knew I had to cut out 10,000 words! What agony! What despair! Thank goodness I did it. I don't even miss them now, and the publishers were right! Tight is beautiful. Quick hints: 1) Get rid of "ly" adverbs and change weak verbs to strong verbs so you don't need the "ly" adverbs (talked softly could be murmured). 2) Get rid of "ing" verbs whenever possible ("Come here," Sarah called, running through the house.) 3)Get rid of unnecessary "tags" (Sarah said; Jon yelled). If you know who's talking, don't add the dialogue tag. And lastly.... 4) If whatever you are writing does not move the story along, then get rid of it....no matter how lovely it sounds or how precious it is to you.. If you are brave, I can SHOW you "cutting" when your story is all finished and you think you've tightened it the best you can.
