WHAT ARE SCENES? • After completing or filling in almost as much as you can on your character profiles, you need to create your first scene! • Scene is like the mystery sample that your read. Think of each chapter in a book as a scene. • Each scene in your story will contain 3 items: goal – what your character wants, conflict- make it hard for your character to get what he/or she wants, & disaster- is like a dead end. It leaves your character feeling loss and brings in new information.
