Ever felt like your story's stuck in a rut, despite all the action-packed scenes? You're not alone. Creating drama doesn't automatically mean your plot's moving forward.
Scott Eyman, a film critic, once said, "Action has become confused with movement." He nailed it. It's like mistaking a car chase for actual plot development. Ouch. Sometimes, you've gotta be ruthless. If a scene doesn't serve your plot, it's time to bid it adieu. Faulkner said it best: sometimes, you gotta "kill your babies." Brutal, but true. And it's not just about dialogue or exposition. Even the most action-packed scenes can fall flat if they're not pushing the story forward. In books, just like in movies, pointless scenes leave us scratching our heads. But here's the kicker: filmmakers have it easy. They can fix a scene with a few edits. In a novel, a lull can cost you readers. That's why every word must propel the plot forward. Bottom line? Cut the fluff, focus on the plot. It's tough love, but your story will thank you for it.
