Revised draft

You might say: second draft

The draft after a revision pass: leaner, and closer to the story you meant to tell.

What it does
Feeds the next round of revision, or goes on to editing.
Ask
Is it ready for an editor, or does it need another round?
Trouble
The problems readers flagged are still there.
