And yes, how a character feels and senses all around him or her--that can make all the difference in making a story come alive.Helenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14967821142796562697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-32949391661535968722015-01-16T11:48:47.326-06:002015-01-16T11:48:47.326-06:00Sia:

Sometimes, in our hurry to get a scene down we skip over that but then we can go back and revise it. How can we invoke a better atmosphere? Or emotion.<br /><br />Good thoughts here.<br /><br /><a href="http://siamckye.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Sia McKye Over Coffee</a> <br /><br />~Sia McKye~https://www.blogger.com/profile/08470562659597351033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-16588442066075818052015-01-16T11:01:00.684-06:002015-01-16T11:01:00.684-06:00Thanks, Donna:

After appreciating the cover and book blurb, of course. I like the imagery of painting the scenery in words for the reader.<br /><br />Good points to master in the story setting.dolorahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08715849844092553699noreply@blogger.com
