In today's video we're tackling a big subject: PACING. More specifically, how to balance description and narrative to create an IMMERSIVE experience for your reader! I'm sharing the secret to perfect pacing (hint: it's a really simple rule that you can apply to ANY genre + writing style!)
Comment below and tell me: what's a great example of excellent pacing in a book/film? What did it teach you about writing?

My name is Abbie Emmons I teach writers how to make their stories matter by harnessing the power and psychology of storytelling, transforming their ideas into a masterpiece, and creating a lifestyle that makes their author dreams come true.
Story isn’t about “what happens” — it’s about how what happens affects and transforms the characters. I believe that there is an exact science (a recipe, if you will) behind a perfect story. And if you know what ingredients you need, you can create your own perfect story with ease and confidence. That’s what we talk about every week on this channel – and if it’s something you’re into, be sure to subscribe and join this community!
