Scene by Scene

The true element of a narrative is scene. Of course character, setting, conflict are essential, but they all come together in scenes.

When beginning to construct a narrative, some writers fall into the trap of writing a glut of character experience without purpose.

Readers do not need to know how a character fit from point A to point B unless it contributes to the narrative as a whole.

Every scene should have a purpose, and that is where an author should focus their attention.
