Session Summary
Thursday, April 14, 2016
8pm to 9pm PDT
Topics covered:
- short story: “Cycle”
- further discussion (including examples) of showing & telling
-“trusting your reader”
Session Summary:
Jareb and I had an outstanding tutoring session this evening. It was nice to work with him again—our last session was over three months ago. Jareb shared his wonderfully-effective short story “Cycle”, which I found creepy and spooky and unsettling, all of which were Jareb's goals for the story. We also discussed some mechanics of storytelling: showing & telling and trusting your reader. Jareb brought terrific questions to session this evening, to which I hope I provided good, meaningful answers for him. Great, great job tonight, Jareb—thanks so much for so receptive and open. I look forward to working together and for a long time to come.
