# Overview

Revision Status summarises project progress so you can see what is drafted, revised, polished or still waiting for attention.

# When Should I Use This?

Use it during planning reviews, before a writing session, or when deciding whether a book is ready for a deeper revision pass.

# How To Use It

Scan the groups for uneven progress. Open the relevant scenes or chapters when you need to update details.

# Example

If most scenes are drafted but one chapter still has many planning-stage scenes, that chapter may need focused attention before polishing.

# Writer Tip

Revision status is a navigation aid, not a measure of quality.

# Common Mistakes

- Polishing scenes whose structure is not settled.
- Forgetting to update status after major edits.
- Treating all chapters as equally ready because the draft is complete.
