Tuesday's Writer's Tip Contrasts and similarities #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #writing #contrasts #similarities

 Contrast is an effective way of writing. Using two characters or two situations that are totally different can add to the tension in a scene. Also effective are startling similarities. Using then and now similarities or differences can add to a story. These can be effectively used in stories with little plot. Contrasts that are real or are only almost are effective in writing stories.

Tuesday's Writer's Tip - More on Patterns - For Contrast #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #Writing #Patterns #Contrast

 Just what is meant by using patterns for contrast. The best way to explain this is to show the same character in similar scenes. Show the first scene with the cnaracter acting in a way that is less than heroic. Then show a similar scene with the character using the elements from the first scene suchas setting, the problem but having the character act in a way of redemption. Such as when writing a scene in a juvenile story where the main character does something that brings harm to another character. The second scene mirrors the first except the main character aides the other instead of harming hi. This is used by many writers. Dicken's Scrooge is an example. Go and read the story again and see how the scenes mirror Scrooge's actions but with redemption in the second similar scene.
