Quick Tip #8 Leave Early

Posted on | July 6, 2010 | No Comments

Sorry this is so late. i have no (good) excuse.

The principle of getting out early applies as much to entire books as it does to scenes and chapters.  Get out of a scene before it gets boring. get out of your book before you have to tie everything up in a nice neat bow. Leave your readers with somewhere to go. Of course, as always, there are exceptions to this rule, but if you find yourself bored while writing a scene or a story consider that you might have stayed in it for too long.
