Talk:The Eternal Summer (audio story)

Thanks for all the corrections SOTO! I'm still in the process of listening to the story so I'm just updating it as I go. Feel free to let me know of any issues in my plot-writing here. I'm trying to shorten my summaries because I've noticed on my last couple entries for other audios I've been writing waaaay too much detail to the point where I may as well just upload the script. Looking forward to finishing this trilogy with Plague of the Daleks, really enjoy the Stockbridge stories for some reason!
 * (The Eternal Summer is one of my absolute favourites!) It does take practice to get the hang of brevity with sufficient clarity, but it works just as well to write as you go and then ruthlessly edit at the end to keep things simple. Generally, bits that drive the plot forward or in a new direction are due a little more attention, but descriptions and actions that just lead to those important bits can be summarised with an extra two or three words in the next sentence, or deleted altogether.


 * Obviously, a lot of the action in this story is the sort of minutiae we'd normally cut out: lots of asking questions and learning things that might come up later on. But still, anything like "The Doctor decides to go to X place. He takes Y transportation and arrives at X place, only to see Z character" can really be replaced by "At X place, the Doctor is surprised to see Z character" unless those details are plot-relevant. 05:38, June 30, 2020 (UTC)
