Last week's writing challenge was to find a random story online and edit it. Turns out it is a bit harder to find works in progress online.
I did find a piece to work on - about two or so pages. There was a lot that I deleted wholesale, tightened up the dialogue and re-structured parts of it to change the order some of the information was presented. There were several bits of exposition that I cut out as well... though in the authors defence, they may have become pertinent later on in the story. They just weren't important in the section I was working on.
I'm certain the result I have can be edited further, though for the purposes of this exercise, I'm happy with the result that I have.
