Bücher von Jordan Rosenfeld

"Scenes are the building blocks for any work of fiction--the DNA sequence that makes a novel un-put-downable and unforgettable. When writers are able to craft effective, engaging scenes, they can develop a complete, cohesive story--and a mesmerizing experience for readers. Make a Scene Revised and Expanded Edition takes you step-by-step through the elements of strong scene construction and demonstrates how the essential aspects of a compelling story--including character, plot, and dramatic tension--function within the framework of individual scenes to give momentum to the whole narrative. You'll learn how to: craft an opening scene that hooks readers and foreshadows conflict; develop various scene types--from contemplative to suspenseful to flashback--that are distinct and purposeful; establish characters' intentions within a scene that drive the plot; transition into new scenes by clearly establishing details of setting, character, and point of view; create resonating climactic and final scenes that stay with readers long after they've finished your story. The revised and expanded edition includes brand-new examples, an increased focus on advancing plot and character development, and the same knowledge and clarity that writers have come to expect from Jordan Rosenfeld."--Publisher's description.
