November 21, 2003, Newsletter Issue #41: Revision: Editing Your Scenes
Tip of the Week
List your scenes--or better yet, cut them out with scissors and line them up in front of you chronologically. This will give you a sense of what weight each scene has in the story. You will be able to more easily whether they belong, are working individually, and are working with the whole piece. Analyze each carefully. Read them aloud so that you can hear how they would sound if spoken. Make a list of scenes you need to include in the next draft.
