#so finding small ways to keep those transitory scenes interesting is so so important to me
Text
getting to a point in my nuclear weapons AU where I actually need to do some more detailed planning. I can only fly by the seat of my pants for so long 😭
#there’s a lot of connective tissue that needs to be filled in. I’ve got some of the pivotal scenes meticulously planned out#(and sometimes even written)#but in a lot of cases I only have a vague idea of what needs to happen between two important scenes#making that connective tissue interesting and engaging is my number one writing challenge tbh#I’m a big fan of ‘traveling by map’ if there’s nothing interesting between two scenes#but doing that too much can leave a piece feeling disjointed and awkward#so finding small ways to keep those transitory scenes interesting is so so important to me#whether that’s through some nice banter between characters or evocative descriptions#idk. long way of saying that tonight is going to be a planning night I think#I also need to figure out how I’m going to integrate the flashback chapters#I’m torn between one or maybe two mega flashback#and sprinkling flashbacks evening through the work. idk#I think it would be really cool to take approach 2 and like. have the current timeline and the flashbacks mirror each other thematically#and reach their narrative peaks at the same time#but that requires planning 😩 and also idk if there’s enough of the flashback chapters to support that structure. idk idk idk#much to think about#gay herald in a squirrel suit#*transitional not transitory. rip
