Editing

How do you edit your novels? I am unsure whether to edit my first chapter while it's fresh in my head or move on with the second while my brain is in gear with the story? Thanks.

Adam I would say that if your brain is in gear just keep moving on with it. There will be plenty of days when you can't think of what to write next and those are the ones you should spend editing. That's what I do and it means that if I get stuck with the story I can still make progress.
