About the Book

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. Make a Scene is an essential part of any novelist’s library–make sure it’s in yours.
