You’ve written pages. Maybe even chapters. But your scenes still aren’t landing the way you imagined. The pacing drags. The tension fizzles. And you’re not sure why.

In this episode, we’re diving into the 3 essential elements that make a scene work. So your story doesn’t just move forward, but pulls the reader in and keeps them hooked moment by moment.

If your scenes feel a little off, or you’re not sure they’re doing enough, this is your go-to guide. You’ll also get a practical checklist to pressure-test your scenes as you write and revise.
