In Episode 10 of Cutting Chai Stories, Jayati Vora goes back to her roots: editing. It almost never happens that your first draft is perfect. Sure, sometimes the inspiration flows and you're in the zone, but after you sleep on it and look at your words with fresh eyes, inevitably, you'll see flab you can trim, words that stand out but not in a good way, or it just doesn't read as well as it could. Embrace it! This is your opportunity to polish your writing and make it better. In episode 10, I read you the unedited and edited drafts of a short story I wrote, and take you behind the scenes to show you what I changed--and why. 

I also tell you about creative writing workshops I'm hosting: for adults, for children (sign up for the June series on using your imagination now), and for a special date night for significant others or relatives or friends.
