113: Unhinged – Picking Which Drafts to Polish (and Which to Cast into the Fire)
Fresh from vacation, we talked about the dark art of editing. How do you know which pieces deserve your time, when to let stories sit for months (or years)? What about the stubborn love we feel for broken drafts no one else believes in? We offer our advice, dear reader, on this and more.
Then we shared stories for Unhinged—a prompt that inspired creepy mechanics, ominous flights, and characters teetering right on the edge.
