Powerful Pacing for Storytellers

Written by Vanessa Grant

Narrated by Vanessa Grant

In Vanessa Grant's Powerful Pacing for Storytellers, you'll discover how to build tension, emphasize important events, and control your story's pacing while increasing the reader's engagement. 

You'll explore story pacing with its three different timing clocks and a formula that can help you control the relationship between time, speed, viewpoint depth, and emotional intensity. 

Then you'll go on to look at the way a reader's perception of time fluctuates with the level of excitement, and we'll study the techniques you can use to control pacing and your reader's level of excitement. 

And finally, you'll study the effect that different writing modes have on pacing, and how you can control pacing and speed using these modes.
