I’ve written a plot for a long story. But it’s not easy for anybody to review because my characters’ dialogue and goals are all over the place, it’s often usually mixed up and I struggle to structure it back because I often forget the plot. I know that a good plot carries out suspense and emotion including the consequences and reactions of a character’s choice, my characters for example don’t add up properly. I am confident with my writing, but not my editing. I’ve been paying attention to the story structure of TV shows such as **Breaking Bad** and **Dexter** to try to compare mine to a proper story structure, but at the same time I am trying not copy from a good show. How can I edit my all-over-the-place writing to focus it more?
