I am so excited to finally bring you a full 5-part series on Writing Great Scenes!
In the writing world, we talk a lot about plot and overall story structure, but I think where a lot of writers get stuck is in the process of figuring out how to write scenes. In this video series, we’re going to go over the 5 components of great scenes, 6 questions to ask when thinking about your character’s role in every scene, how to pack scenes with conflict that keeps readers turning pages, and more! I can’t wait!
