How do you avoid purple prose? It's just a typo. Why don't you fix it when you see it? That is the point of a community-answered question an answer site, isn't it? |

What are the benefits of being a slush reader? Maybe you've not been paying attention. A lot of places use them, though it's much more common in television. It's so bad in writing for TV that when you write on spec, your spec script for say, the Simpsons, will never even go to the producers of the Simpsons even with a waiver but instead will go to the producers of Family Guy, who may then ask you to write a Family Guy script if you did a good job with the Simpsons script. |

Techniques for writing internal monologue +1 for the "don't use italics" -- it really is a lazy way of writing. I think most "thinker attributions" are needless, too. |

What tools do you use for your writing journal? I'm really liking Celtx simply because it's free on the Mac. Very similar to Scrivener. |

What tools do you use for your writing journal? I love Moleskine's -- my trouble is organizing. I'm starting to go with one notebook per project. |
