'How to Save a Shitty Draft' by Mihan Han
Examine fungating mass with clinical detachment.
Fortify self with humility. Harden skin
(consider alcohol).
Sterilise with anti-septic skepticism.
Cut deeply.
Excise clichés like cancerous deposits.
Dissect necrotic characters from viable vistas.
Reapproximate clauses. Perfuse with plot.
Stitch with dialogue and dramatic irony.
Defibrillate with high-voltage verbs.
Check for pulse.
Check again.
All Rights. Mihan Han.
