Tuesday's Writer's Tip Mosaic Structure #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #writing #mosaic structure

Mosaic structure consists of small segments to form a pattern and the structure of a story. Repetitions of images as symbols, repeated situations and attitude form a pattern. Each repetition gives a bit more information having a cumulative effect. Rather like solving a puzzle with more revealed with each repeated scene. There are a number of formtes that build to form the picture. Mood pieces, character slice of life, theme and variation and allegory are forms of the mosaic pattern. Though the scenes may seem static they do form a whole and the picture emerges.

Books with plots can also have structures. Some books don't follow the beginning, middle and end structure of simply following the plot. Sometimes the books need a kind of structure to make them make sense. This doesn't mean there is no plot. What it means is the plot doesn't follow the strict route laid out. There are a number of structures for stories that we'll talk about in the next couple of weeks.

Mosaic, Mood Piece and Character Sketch. These structures or patterns can also contain a plot though the plot may not seem evident.
