Listen "Getting Your Novel Right — Scene Setting and Reworking"
Episode Synopsis
We’re covering two different topics from Ann Lamott’s book Bird by Bird. First off is scene setting, both its importance for your characters and how to get all the details right (quick answer, ask an expert). Then we’re back to finding out what your story is about and how to return to a scene or chapter again and again (and again) until you can finally say, “Yes, that is how it needs to be written.”
Also, following up on last week’s episode about character verses plot driven stories, we talk to three genre writers about their approach.
