PART 1 · LESSON 9 OF 30 · 30 MINUTES

Praise that also guides

Emma brings a clear and lengthy opening script, and Ana learns to say what works well first and ask for a specific revision tied to the goal. Say here's the script for the opening four pages, what works well is the order hello bathrooms the three partners the first story, but, it would be even clearer if each partner got one sentence instead of a paragraph, one sentence for Carla she'll want more, she'll want people to come back one sentence they remember does that, which sentence, the one you wrote last the one about the bread, so four pages become one, and the order stays that part was right.
