Outlander Season 4

Have you been watching the priemier of Outlander? 

Have you noticed how much conflict is packed in an hour of Outlander?  Outlander has been on for the past three days.  As I binge watch the episodes, I noticed a pattern, a pace, beats whatever you want to call it.

Conflict!

That is what is lacking in my rough drafts of anything I write.  I am to nice to my characters.  As I watch Outlander, I noticed the Conflict.  Example is the preimier of Season 4.  It was good but the end was a surprise.  Did you see that coming?  Watch the episode again and see how they paced the hour. 

That is what is keeping the viewers coming back again again.

I know that I have heard it over and over again, make your hero and heroine suffer.  Outlander is a good example. 

Whether you are a fan of the show or not.  You can learn something from the episodes from conflict, pacing and foreshadowing. 

Watch any movie or show on tv and see how the pacing, conflict  is done.

Write No Matter What

I woke up and felt like a truck hit me.  I still turned my computer on and started writing.  That is the only way the story is going to get written.  Do I feel like writing?  Nope.  Do if feel like Blogging?  Nope.  I write cause that is what I do.  So I poured me a soda and let the caffine take its effect.  I have to get ready for work in a bit, I blooged, I wrote a bit, so I am still going in the write direction. I write no matter what.  whether I feel like  it or not. Have a great day. http://sharonleejohnson.com/

Get that Book Published

USA UK Denmark Asia FREE On Kindle Unlimited Write no matter what anyone says.  We all have a story to tell.  If you are a writer, your friends and family might get why you write.  I know that my family does not get me at all.  They just roll their eyes and ignore the fact that I am now a self-published writer.  They don't care.  So I don't talk about my writing to them.  Why waste my time. Instead, I write.  I might not write 2,000 words everyday.  What I do everyday is, I write.  I write and it might only be 100 words, but I wrote something. I blog and I consider that writing.  I have people come to my blog everyday.  People are reading what I write, like you are reading what I have written, therefore I am a writer.   I know that it is lonely sometimes and you wonder why bother.  I write to live.  I can not write. You can be a self-published writer in less than a mont...
