deep breaths inbetween

gentle touches to comfort

WRITEBLR HELLP

Where can I find accurate medical information on injuries. Like treatment, severity, and of course how long it would take to bleed out. I CAN'T FIND ANYTHING-

I've been making a series I hope to post on YouTube. I won't go into detail but y'know I think it's cool. Anyway it's really just a me and a few friends project. I'm writing the scripts and doing the animation (yes it's animated) while also voice acting like 14 characters. My friend is voice acting the rest and will be helping with the editing. Anyway that's just exposition for the funny part of the post.

My friend was asking me where as this was going and I vaguely described the season 1 ending to them. They asked for specifics and stuff and I was just sitting there like, "Mx. do you think I know the specifics? I'm as in the dark as you are! I start writing and shit happens. Until we get to the one scene that inspired my writing trip I do not know shit until I edit it! We'll find out together! :)"

So yeah that's my writing process, what's yours? It's probably less chaaotic is what I would say if I didn't know what writers are like.

Sometimes, we break through and create awesome stories by asking questions.

Other times, we get a breakthrough because we ask ourselves if we are asking the right questions. When it comes to pacing, this is one of those times.

Rethinking pacing

Pacing isn’t all about action. It’s about making sure that everything you write advances the story, even the quiet moments.

Instead of asking whether a scene is exciting, ask whether a scene is important.

Does it develop the plot?

Does it develop your characters?

If it does one of the above, then it's important and will fit into the pacing of your story. If it's important, that makes it interesting. If it's not important, it will be boring — and that's what pacing is all about.
