Scenes and Sequels: How to Write Page-Turning Fiction (For Fiction Writers) - Tapa dura
Libro 1 de 3: For Fiction Writers
Sinopsis
If You Haven't Mastered the Craft of Writing Scenes and Sequels, You Haven't Mastered Storytelling.
A compelling premise and interesting characters can get a novel started. Scenes and sequels help connect what happens to how characters respond—and what they do next.
Scenes and Sequels: How to Write Page-Turning Fiction explains how these two building blocks work together to move a story forward.
Scenes show characters pursuing goals, encountering opposition, and facing consequences. Sequels explore characters’ emotional responses, their consideration of what has happened, and their decisions about what to do next.
Understanding that relationship helps you examine your own fiction more clearly:
- What does the character want in this scene?
- What stands in the character’s way?
- How does the scene end, and what are the consequences?
- How does the character respond?
- What decision leads to the next course of action?
Mike Klaassen explains the structural principles behind scenes and sequels and shows how scene-and-sequel analysis can help you troubleshoot passages that aren’t working. Examples and analysis worksheets help you apply the principles to your own manuscript, with flexibility to meet your story’s needs.
Whether you’re writing a novel or revising a draft, start with the building blocks. Strengthen the connection between what happens, why it matters, and what your characters do next.
Part of the For Fiction Writers series, alongside Fiction-Writing Modes and How to Write a Novel That Matters.

Acerca del autor
Mike Klaassen is an American author who writes both fiction and nonfiction. When his sons were teenagers, he wrote two young-adult, action-adventure novels for boys: "The Brute" and "Cracks."

These books offer practical guidance for aspiring writers and illuminate the processes behind compelling storytelling.Fusing his love for folklore and his interest in writing fiction, Mike initiated "Klaassen's Classic Folktales," a collection that retells ancient stories as novellas. Through this series, he breathes new life into time-honored tales, offering readers of all ages a fresh perspective on these enduring stories.In 2023, Mike began writing and publishing full-time after retiring from a career in accounting, investing, and banking. In 2024, as a proud father and grandfather, he wrote "Superpower Life Skills for Teens with Ambition: How to Master Resilience, Conflict Resolution, Teamwork, Money Management, Critical Thinking, and More to Become Your Best Self."
