And then revise again. Face it: you're never done revising.
Yesterday I attacked said revisions. And it went well! Even wrote a new scene, which rocked, totally rocked. Of course, that was on another play... I'm having trouble getting to the Halloween play (i.e., the one being workshopped); it's daunting because there's just SO MUCH that needs to be revised. Instead, I opened up the play I'm currently writing, and wrote the aforementioned new scene. This worked a treat! I think it really helped grease the wheels, and upped my confidence to move on to other stuff. After writing the scene, I went back and revised the first scene in the same play. Then I moved on to another play not currently being workshopped, and fixed a plot development that had always bugged me. Being satisfied with that, I moved on to the Halloween play. I didn't have a lot of time left, but like I said, there's just so much to fix that I decided to start small. I changed the name of a place, and brought in a character to a scene to address an issue. I also addressed an issue where a character was already in a scene, but there was no real reason for them to be there. That's it. Starting small, indeed. But it felt GREAT. Next time I will be on full attack. And that baby's gonna feel some full on change!
