Great #storytellers scatter small conflicts throughout the whole story, in each chapter, in every scene, & on every page no matter the genre. #amwriting @SNHUMFA It isn't necessarily yelling, etc. It can be as simple as not finding keys/leaving late for an important appointment.

When we #read, the #storyteller has the floor. No one interrupts. Interjects their experience. No one will one-up by saying... #readers #listen and #engage. source: #themoth #NPR

“The paradox of novels is: they are untrue—yet their success depends upon how truthful they seem to us.” Andrew Cowan ~Mary Vee in MFA land
