One of the best ways to check the continuity and tone of your story is to read it aloud to a friend or even to yourself. Today, instead of reading another short memoir, you will listen to an audio excerpt of David Sedaris's "The Drama Bug."
The Drama Bug
After you have listened to it, take some time to consider the difference between reading a short story and listening to it. How does it change? What do you notice about the language used by the author? What does this teach you about your own writing?
