I like what you wrote about having to draw the person in from the first paragraph. I like to read, and when I do read something, I really enjoy when I pick up the book and lose all sense of my surroundings. This doesn’t happen often, but when it does, I’m in heaven!

Wow , thanks for this article , this helps me with my writings as well. My biggest weakness is how to give more meat to the story , What scenes to put as in betweeners , and how to make them interesting and the same time relevant to the overall flow to the story. jb says: You might find my series on learning to write interesting.

John, I’m delurking after many months to say how much I’m enjoying this series. It’s wonderful to have practical insights into how other writers work.

I love what Jason says here about his process, especially how, at the end, if he can read it like a reader then he knows it’s complete.
