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/

Writing When Sick

I didn't feel good the last two days.  I slept a lot, but I was still thinking about my writing.  I did sit on the couch with my laptop and did some writing, though that I know that I need to do rewrite, but I did write.  Today I feel better and hopefully I will get more pages into the computer.  I started the rewrite of a novel that has been rejected 20 times and I will get it back on the market. So that I it.  I am going to start writing and get this done. What are you working on??? This is a new year.....New Beginning.
