| Re: How do you redraft? WriterDoug has given some excellent advice.
In a nut shell, make yourself a Journal. Great way for you to keep to your goals, organise your writing, cut your editing time down and writes your synopsis as you go along. If you use a chart as well, you can determine your *actual* tension against "proposed* tension, plot development, character development etc.
Simon Haynes (Hal Spacejock) has made his own which he kindly allows you to download free. It's called yWriter2 Spacejock but make sure it's the one by Spacejock Incorporated. There are two out, and the other one doesn't measure up for me. I only use the version 2 until all the bugs are ironed out of version 3. Simon's site can be found at the top of Chrons page, or copy what I wrote in bold, and paste straight into net window. While you're at it, have a look at what his advice is, regarding our discussions here. Not only informative but very funny and certainly worth copying into your Journal at home. |
