Killing some darlings today. It’s rough, but I know it’s the best thing for the project. It’s hard though getting rid of stuff that’s been there since the first draft in 2013 #editing #contemporaryya #theberkshires #fallfestivalofshakespeare #fourthdraft #killyourdarlings #rough (at Monterey, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNF2dBkJhDt/?igshid=tdi2u4q8ecld
The Fourth Draft
1. How many times do you need to write chapter 1 before it's perfect? A lot. A whole lot. 2. Your word count is still too high. Must. Cut. More. Words. Somehow.... 3. Adverbs are NOT your friend. I repeat over and over, thanks to Stephen King. 4. Reading a good book will help keep you sane. Thank you, Juliet Marillier, for refueling me when I think I've had it with my revisions. 5. Husband will think you are crazy. Let him think that... Because honestly, writers live by the beat of a different drum. 6. Don't give up. This is perhaps the most important thing I've learned so far. Writers, keep writing. Keep reading. Keep dreaming.
Check out my friend's creation: Fourthdraft! It's an online portfolio system for all you artists, photographers and anything-else-ists!
