So much to chew on—thank you! The wisdom of #5 and #6 is very clarifying. It's easy to want to accommodate all perspectives simultaneously. A reminder to find a way to distribute the POVs across multiple scenes. Cheers!

Awesome. Thank you. When the student is ready the teacher appears! Point 38 is so timely for me as I'm shot listing my short film, and simplifying my script in the process.

This is amazing. Helpful on so many levels. I just finished the draft of a novel and after I do a continuity rewrite (to fix mistakes, address changed premises and seed stuff I did in the end earlier so that the end is inevitable), I have to do a character edit. and all this advice will be exceedingly valuable. Thanks.
