June 10, 2025 Page One Rewrite (Revision 1)
In this episode we talk about the most feared thing in writing: the Page One Rewrite. Hopefully your scripts don't need it, but it happens to many people when they start writing without the story fully-formed. Come on the journey with us as we discuss some big changes to the script.First revisions are the first place where writers get to keep the good, and say, "Out with the bad." It's hard to see your own issues, but we have to work through it like all writers.
