Fiction
As a part of undergraduate classes, I wrote a tv show script and short story. Both projects helped develop my planning and revision skills, particularly revising for clarity.
Screenwriting
Both screenwriting and technical writing provide instructions, screenwriting for movies and tv episodes and technical writing for documentation. Therefore, both types of writing are similar in that they emphasize clarity and conciseness as well as active verbs. In spring 2009, I wrote a script for a 60 minute television series, Psych. While writing this script, I worked on idea generation, outlining, and intensive revision, focusing in particular on making my writing as concise and clear as possible.
Fiction
I wrote the following short story as a part of a senior-level undergraduate fiction writing course. While writing this story, I revised for clarity and conciseness as well as character accuracy.
