Episode 31: Three Acts of Revision, ACT III, Plan
from Write, Writer, Write! · host Deborah Froese
SHOW NOTES This is Part Two of the Three Acts of Revision series. You've read your draft like a reader. Now it's time to evaluate what you found. In this episode, the SCOPE method of revision planning identifies strengths, uncovers structural weaknesses such as story structure, character arcs, argument flow, and momentum—and it helps you determine how to resolve them before you begin rewriting. It addresses common questions such as: How do I revise a novel without feeling overwhelmed? How do I edit a nonfiction manuscript structurally? What should I fix first in my first draft? Use the SCOPE approach to develop a clear, focused revision plan before you dive into your next draft.
