NBA Draft
Main Post: NBA Draft
What exactly is "a draft"?
Main Post:
That may be a obvious question. However, I had never find a actual answer to it. When people say "I made a draft", do they mean that they write everything but without editing and every iteration of a draft is a rewrite of the entire story? Or is more like a script, that you write the main points of your story and then you write your actual story?
I write as a hobby so I just write once, do some editing and that is it. However and I see people talking about that I get really curious about this process.
Top Comment: As far as I understand it, a “draft” is simply a completed version of your story. It may still require heavy editing and revising, or it may be close to perfect. There can be any number of drafts to a story, depending on how long the author goes on changing and altering it to fit their vision. The first draft is always the roughest, and, no matter how great a writer you are (or think you are), it will always be just that: a first draft; because no enduring piece of literature was ever 100% completed on the first try.
Star Wars Sequel Trilogy writers when they get handed the plot draft from the previous guy
Main Post: Star Wars Sequel Trilogy writers when they get handed the plot draft from the previous guy
Top Comment: The insane part about the sequel trilogy to me is JJ Abrams had veto power over all scripts and could have told Johnson no. He didn't, and decided to spend an entire movie retconning TLJ.
[Beta] New Save Draft Feature for Text and Link Posts
Main Post:
Over the years, we’ve heard redditors talk about working on really long, detailed posts, only to lose it due to some random accident. Starting today, we’re beta testing a new feature in the desktop redesign to allow you to save post drafts.
We’re slowly rolling this out to a percentage of the desktop redesign users in order to get feedback and capture bugs. If you’re one of the selected users, you’ll see a new button to “Save Draft” in the desktop redesign post creator.
View in app Insert cool GIF demo here.When you click “Save Draft,” the post you’re working on will be saved to your Drafts folder. The Drafts folder is accessible from the post creation page. Currently, each user is limited to a max of 20 draft posts, which support saving text and link posts. Saving of image and video posts is under development, and you can expect those to roll out in the next few weeks.
But.. how does it work?
- Drafts can be saved, updated, loaded, and deleted from the desktop redesign
- Drafts are saved on-demand by clicking on the “Save Draft” button. Drafts aren’t automatic (yet)
- If you’ve uploaded an image or video to the fancy pants editor, those images will not be saved (support coming soon)
- Flairs are not yet save-able in drafts (support coming soon)
- Drafts are only accessible to you, so they can’t be viewed by or shared with other users
- After a draft is posted, it's removed from the drafts folder, similar to email drafts
If you’re one of the users randomly selected to have access to this feature, give it a shot and let us know what you think.
