Making a Scene
Manage episode 338135742 series 2996633
If stories are made up of scenes, what are scenes made up of?
According to Jack Bickham in his book, Scene and Structure, scenes start with a character’s stated goal and rumble through an evolving conflict until they reach … a disaster. In this episode, we examine each of these elements and test Bickham’s assertions using Real Book examples. Then, for true illumination, we Bickhamize our own scenes.
But before we delve into the nitty gritty, we have a delightful interview with Susan Tunis of Bookshop West Portal.

Remember, we have a Writers Process meetup every Wednesday. Check us out.
