"Overwrite, overwrite, overwrite"

I met Angela Wilson today by asking her a question over email. She's a playwright, screenwriter and co-founder of Theater Quorum in Dallas.

She broke down Writing into gems. One of which was:

"Overwrite, overwrite, overwrite. Use repetitive adjectives. Then in the hard edit the muse will tell you what to get rid of. AND she will tell you what kind of shoes she wears."

She just created my new motto, mantra and mandate.
