Description

Mark Twain (AKA Samuel Clemens) famously wrote in a letter that he would have made the letter shorter, but he did not have the time. Mr. Twain understood that writing did not require every little detail of every little thing to be explained. He actually understood that good write was succinct. It does not waste the readers time. If it needs to take longer to explain something, it has a reason for doing so. Good writing always has a pay-off. In this episode, I talk about how to focus your writing so you are not writing every piece of every little thing. I do not need to know what characters are eating in most cases. I do not need to know how many hairs are sprouting out of a person's nose (Unless it is a woman. That might be very important information for character development). I need to hone in on those things that are important. And I do that not by focus on the huge things but on the small ones.
