On this episode of Unpublished and Unqualified, we examine how to workshop a piece of writing that has been workshopped in the past, looking at what aspects of the piece are appropriate to focus on that might not have been as important previously. To do so, we will be examining the first chapter of Blood Affinity, "Written in Blood", which was released in audio format last week.
