Recently, I tweeted one of my favorite bits of plot advice:
Beginnings hook readers. Endings create fans.
A writer tweeted back: Sounds a lot like sex. hehe.
This isn’t the first time a writer has likened plot advice I give to sex.
The 4th Energetic Marker and crowning glory of the entire book, the Climax often elicits a comment or two about the parallels in the act of sex and ultimate release of energy to the climax of a story.
When such parallels are drawn, I simply smile in appreciation of how the Universal Story shows itself everywhere…
Today I write!
