But how much is too much?
Run the Gauntlet (RTG) is a free monthly program where one lucky writer receives a developmental edit of their opening scenes. The feedback is recorded in real-time, on-screen and then posted publicly so that other writers can share in the insights garnered.
In this live critique:
A big thanks to Mitty Walters for sharing his WIP “Whiskey, Tango, Hotel” with us! In my first-ever live critique I take a deep-dive into the following topics:
- Finding the balance between introducing your character versus setting up key plot elements.
- Weaving the five narrative modes of dialogue, action, description, interior monologue, and exposition.
