@malina_hubler Totally depends on how much you have to do. Are your revisions so huge you have to change every other line? Probably easier to rewrite. Clear up confusion? Edit. Filling in? Edit.
Set up your characters goals, and whether or not your reader is sympathetic toward them, to find out what your reader roots for. Do we want the lighthouse to stand or to fall? Remember to join me on IG for my yearly giveaway. #NaNoWriMo#AspiringAuthor#WritingCommunity
@RayaKhedker Research shows that it stimulates almost the exact same centres of the brain to listen versus read. May not feel as satisfying as slapping shut a 500-page beauty, but to be able to have read a book AND gotten the groceries is a pretty phenomenal feeling 😜

Happy #NaNoWriMo22 ! Opening your story, we want to see your characters in their normal world with a goal for a change. That goal has motivation behind it and the character has actions they take to achieve their goal. Join me on IG to participate in my giveaway.
@malina_hubler If you have multiple POV characters, then you still want to see how they fit into the overarching plot and point/theme and make sure each one pushes it forward. Diff chars represent diff aspects of the thematic argument & play diff roles, and they pass the baton
@malina_hubler There are TONS of ways to approach it, but usually you want to look at what you want to say, look for the signposts of the major moments, then figure out what would take you from one point to the next, and make it a cause of the MCs' choices
