- @authorViviAnna They won't understand nuances, no. But they can tell you if something is unpleasant or if there's a plot hole. #tvwriterchat
- @fundmysitcom To clarify: One CASUAL reader, like a family member or friend. Wouldn't show a first draft to a pro. #tvwriterchat
- @fundmysitcom I would get 1 reader to read my first draft. Just so I know if there's a glaring plothole/bad idea in there. #tvwriterchat
- When you write your 1st draft, do you make an effort to get an appropriate page count or do you not care about too short/long? #tvwriterchat
- I'm here! Though the end of Game of Thrones will keep me from being too active for the first 30 minutes. #tvwriterchat
