Today I worked with some of my favorite private students: a novelist writing a sci-fi fantasy set in a complicated future universe, a screenwriter writing a beautifully crafted drama with great humor about coming of age, and another scriptwriter writing a cynical comedy about a illness survivor who learns to really live his life before it's too late. What is so interesting to me is that all 3 writers use my writing system, and they are so easy to revise! I have such a great job! The concept in the system is that if you build the story right from the beginning, the inevitable revision work can be focused and expansive. Think of your story like a house - if the foundation is well built, it will support as many stories (pun intended!) as you like!
