Key Concepts
When writing a monologue, it's important to write more than what's necessary and then refine it through re-reading, speaking aloud, and editing.
To help with writing, try setting time constraints and writing continuously without stopping to overthink, or use the 'Four Emotions' exercise by exploring anger, fear, hope, and shame.
Other helpful exercises include using a memory and modifying it for a character, writing from the perspective of a villain, copying the style of a writer, or using the alphabet to start each new sentence.
