This week on the Story Works Round Table, Alida, Kathryn, & Robert dig into Act II. If this sounds familiar:
Robert: A big problem is that when you dream up your story, you have this amazing sense of, I just thought this amazing thing is going to happen to this character and then how it's all going to end. Okay, but there's 50% of your novel, which I just haven't thought about yet. I think for many of us, it's being able to slow down, tease apart the problem, and introduce all of the complications that are required to then deliver that delicious climax that is really satisfying to the reader.
Kathryn: Yeah, we have this big empty gap, like, just tell me what to put in here, please.
...sit back and join the Round Table as we talk about "what to put in here, please!"
