I’ve been doing “premise and plot” chats with authors, helping them work through stories that are giving them trouble and it has to be some of the most rewarding work I’ve done. There’s always one question that the author hadn’t thought of that unlocks the whole story. It’s like magic.
It’s always a different question. Sometimes it’s about stakes, sometimes about structure, sometimes motivations. But there’s always *something* the author couldn’t see and I love helping them see it.
We always need others to help us find out what we are missing. It's so awesome that there are people out there with the expertise to help authors 🙌📚
I'll bet! Seeing that 'aha moment' is truly magical
