SCENES GUIDANCE
Make Every Scene Earn Its Place
A novel becomes manageable when you stop trying to write three hundred pages at once. Build one purposeful scene at a time—each with desire, resistance and an emotional change.
SCENES 01
Give the scene a reason to exist
A strong scene changes something. Someone enters wanting an outcome, meets resistance and leaves in a different emotional or practical position.
SCENES 02
Put the reader inside the room
Use setting, movement and carefully chosen details so characters do not feel as if they are talking in empty space.
SCENES 03
Let the real conversation live underneath
Dialogue becomes interesting when the spoken words and the hidden intention are not quite the same.
