Tell The Damn Story, Ep 258: "The Importance of Revisions: A Five-Step Process for Editing Your Scripts"

"Your words don't have to be perfect the first time they hit the page!" This week, Alex Simmons and Christopher Ryan take writers through how to edit and revise their work. Many creatives think of editing and revision as drudge work or punishment, the correcting of mistakes. But in fact, it is the opportunity to make good work great and great work excellent. That's why we explore the impact of using simple sentences and how it can improve storytelling. In addition, we share strategies for writers to stay focused while editing so they can meet deadlines. The boys of TTDS feel creators should run to revision with open arms. So in this episode, we offer 5 - 7 ways you can. Have questions or comments for us?
