Hello Rebels, welcome to episode 106 of The Rebel Author Podcast. Today, I’m talking to Alex Kourvo all about developmentally editing your own work through your second draft.
In this episode we cover:
- Analogies to help you better understand editing vs drafting
- How to approach editing
- The pitfalls and mistakes writers fall into
- How to show the change a hero goes through
- The five big scenes you need to get right
- The stakes paradox
This week’s question is: tell me something you’ve achieved this year.
Recommendation of the week is: I Love You To My Heart by Matthew Dion Goodall
